#11 Robot Lucky Star has trialled well twice since a fair first-up run in mid-April, with both pieces of work showing enough improvement to suggest he can run a race second-up. Barrier 1 sets him up for a great run in transit and he will take some beating. #9 Honest Witness has turned a corner since a change of tactics, leading throughout in both recent runs and winning easily last start by more than four lengths. He may have been flattered by the track that night, however, and faces a fresh test 10 points higher in the ratings. This isn’t a strong Class 3, though. #8 Embrace Aberdeen maps for a better run from barrier 3 today and reuniting with Matthew Poon is a positive. #1 Son Pak Fu will relish a genuine pace and is one to look for late.
