VIOLET HANDICAP

#4 A Americ Te Specso resumes and has trialled very well for his return, which brings him back to 1,200m for the first time since his first run of the season. He will relish a fast-run race, which looks likely, and gets his chance to finish over the top. #6 Flying Wrote was caught wide throughout last start but still ran Giant Ballon down to a head on the wire. This is an even contest with many chances, but that run signals he can win in Class 3 when the race shape unfolds to suit. #3 Giant Ballon has done an extraordinary job winning three straight while soaring in the ratings, now 26 points higher after his hat-trick. It does not get any easier, but from barrier 2 he gets favours. #7 Storming Dragon steps away from barrier 3 and gets an ideal run camped off the speed from there. He has trialled nicely again since his last-start win at the top of Class 4.
