(8) MERITORIOUS made a smart winning debut and is a filly that looks promising. She should enjoy the extra distance.
(7) SASCHA'S DREAM enjoyed the step up in trip after a fair sprint debut. She can be a threat.
(2) PINK DIAMOND found some market support before drifting off at her last start. She has shown improvement and may be worth watching.
(3) MYSTIQUE ROUGE is way better than her last effort but is struggling for her second win.
(5) RODRIGUEZ has been running well against stronger. The drop in class comes with a rise in the weights but he should run a forward race.
(2) FISH EAGLE was much improved in his first start for his new stable. He, too, is down in class and the change appears to have brought out his better form.
(4) PALERMO has shown his best form on the Poly and is in good shape. A decent chance.
(1) ONE IRISH ROVER has been close-up in his last two on the Poly and, although he jumps in class, he does have a light weight.
(5) PREEMPTIVE STRIKE is a Poly specialist but has good form over the trip. He has his 40th start and has won five times, four more than most of the opposition.
