STRETCH (5) has accrued two minor placings from three runs this preparation. Was handy all the way and finished 3 lengths from the winner in second last time out over 1106m at Remington Park (Dirt). Perfectly placed and is sure to take plenty of stopping. ESSENTIAL TIME (4) could only manage seventh on dirt over 1609m at Remington Park two back then couldn't find the top-three on turf over 1609m at this track more recently. Will find this much easier. Major player. DREWTONIAN (6) was in control from the outset to score as favourite on debut over 1308m at Remington Park (Dirt) seven weeks ago. Sure to play a major role. AWESOME NAME (3) is back from a spell of three-and-a-half months. Scored a good win at his final run last campaign at Remington Park (Dirt) over 1308m. Looks one of the genuine hopes in the race.
