HEZDARNHOTTOO (10) finished runner-up in two runs back and set to peak here with the winkers going on. Sat on the speed before being nailed on the line when second to Yiska over the 1200m here. Can get cover from the draw and expect J Mac to get the best out of him. SALISANO (4) returned in good order with a sharp on pace win over 1200m at Canterbury. Away well from the low draw and pulled up lame when a disappointing ninth to Cosmonova at latest. Will benefit with Roper's 3kg claim and expected to bounce back at each way quote. MAWJOOD (16) lightly raced gelding who pulled up with cardiac arrhythmia after having a tough run when second-up and finishing eleventh over 1100m at Canterbury. Since fitted with a solid 900m trial placing and the blinkers come off from the inside gate. On the limit and ready to return to form. ROMEO'S CHOICE (8) in great form and stays in the contest from the good barrier.
