BOUSSAC (10) ran home well as favourite here a fortnight ago, beaten 0.9L at this track and trip. He maps for a closer run in transit this time and Troy Turner now hops in the saddle. Racing well without winning but gets his chance today. GAGE ROADS (2) comes through a good race over the mile last start when beaten 1.4L and that form may have already been franked today (R3). He'll lob in a great position under McGruddy and he'll go close if he can run up to recent form. CLOSE AT HAND (1) went under in a blanket finish last start but did get a long way back from the draw. Now draws inside and Billy Egan replaces the apprentice hoop in a good push for his chances. Can land the knockout blow. BRAZEN EMPRESS (5) is better than she showed last start and can bounce back to form. MOJO'S LUCK (3) has been off the scene a while but he does have the figures to suggest he can run a big race. Watch for any market moves.
