THE MILITANT (11) did a fair job on debut last time out, finishing 6 lengths from the winner in fifth over 1200m at this track. Has upside and can open his account. EL NEGRO ORFEBRE (1) impressed when successful on debut over 1000m at this track eight months ago and has not been produced since. Likely improver who should run well again. HOPEFULL RIDE (2) is a 11-start maiden who finished fifth at his most recent appearance over 1000m at Palermo. Solid top-three chance on his best figures. MAGIC TREASURE (7) returns from a spell of ten weeks and is having his first run for a new yard. Was a winner when fresh last campaign at this track over 1000m.
