BOLD JOURNEY (3) resumed over 1308m at this track (Dirt) last time out and finished second, beaten 0.8 lengths. Overall record is sound when second-up and will strip much fitter for this. Rates highly on best form and should go very well. EL GRANDE O (5) turned in a moderate run over this journey last time out, settling in a rearwards position and failing to make an impact when fourth over 1207m in the G3 Elite Power Stakes at this track (Dirt). Has the talent to take this out. ACOUSTIC AVE (1) ran well below his best last time over 1308m at this track (Dirt), beaten 4.5 lengths into fourth at $1.62. Should be poised just off the lead. Sure to be competitive. GENERAL BANKER (4) was unwanted in betting last start but performed beyond expectations when beaten one length into third over 1308m at this track (Dirt). Minor claims.
