ASHUKA (4) ran a better race last start to finish a close second over 1408m at this track after being in contention on the turn. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. BETTERMUSTCOME (3) was always well out of his ground when 20 lengths from the winner in eighth over 1408m at this track last start, a less impressive effort than his sixth at this track the run before. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. CROSBY (8) led early and was still in the firing line on the turn last start before tiring to finish fifth over 1308m at this track. Suited in this line up and is among the better hopes. SILENT KNIGHT (6) finished third last time over 1308m at this track when resuming from a spell, beaten 9 lengths. Will trim down second-up. In the right race and is a top-three hope.
