SOFOCLES (3) lifted strongly to score last time with 1.5 lengths to spare over 1106m at this track (Synthetic), making it three in a row. Record here is impressive with four wins from nine starts. Right in this. CARCONE (7) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when 1.5 lengths away in second over 1106m at this track (Synthetic). Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. EL MUHEET (2) resumes today after filling a minor placing at his last appearance at this track (Synthetic) over 1006m on May 24. Among the better hopes. VALIANT WINTER (4) finished second at this track two runs back but didn't measure up last time over 1006m at this track (Synthetic), finishing 5.5 lengths back in eighth. Finds a nice race and can atone.
