BREAKHEART PASS (5) was responsible for a solid effort last time out when second at Listed level at Thistledown (Dirt) over 1207m, beaten one length. Should be at his peak now. Big chance to score. EL NOTIONAL (8) was a most impressive winner last time over 1106m at Thistledown (Dirt), scoring by 7 lengths. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Leading contender. SAMURAI SWORD (2) broke through for his maiden win over 1006m at Thistledown (Dirt) last time, scoring comfortably. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Shaping up nicely and he is one of the main chances. RULE THE ROOST (4) went forward and proved too strong on debut last start, scoring with 2.25 lengths to spare over 1106m at Thistledown (Dirt). Not to be discounted.
