HAMMERHEAD (1) produced a reasonable effort when second last start over 1710m at this track, beaten 2.25 lengths. That followed a win at this track the start prior. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot make amends. FUNNY FACTOR (4) finished sixth last start, beaten 16 lengths, over 1811m at Belmont Park Inner Turf. Is yet to miss the frame from three starts at this distance, including two wins. Drops back in grade. Leading contender. BURHAN (3) returns from a spell of four-and-a-half months. Was safely held at the only appearance last prep when ninth over 1609m at Saratoga Inner Turf (Turf). Sure to make his presence felt. CIAO CHUCK (5) has not won for a long while. Last raced on October 17 when beaten 8 lengths into fifth at this track (Turf) over 1710m. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time.
