EL KABONG (4) was sent out favourite last time and scored by 1.5 lengths at this track. Has a decent record at this track with one win and three minor placings. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Best figures should see him run well. MASON'S GAMBLE (1) was doing his best work late last start to get up for third over 1509m at this track. Has a win and three placings at this journey from eight starts. Should be winding up late again. AMERICAN DECISION (3) finished fourth when resuming two runs back then progressed nicely last time out after being in the firing line on the bend to score by 0.3 lengths over 1710m at this track. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat again in this suitable race. C MY MEISTER (2) was sent out at long odds last time but ran above expectations to finish second, beaten only 1.5 lengths, over 1509m at this track. Settles back early but winds up late. Not to be discounted.
