ASSADI (6) finished 8 lengths from the winner in fourth last start over 1000m at this track, an improvement on his fifth at this track the run before. This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is good enough to take this out. IRON STAR (5) is close to breaking through after three consecutive placings, the latest coming when second over 1000m at this track. Must raise the bar but he has the ability to test this field. ROJO JAMAS (1) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1100m at this track, beaten 2.75 lengths into fourth. Going up a level this time but he is good enough to play a major role. ARABIAN STORY (8) turned in a modest performance when fifth last time out over 1000m at this track, beaten 9 lengths, after a win at this track at the previous outing. Worth plenty of thought.
