LORD MAJESTY (2) is rarely out of the frame on dirt but finished 11 lengths away in sixth over 1207m at this track two back. Again missed the placings but on turf most recently when ninth at this track over 1006m. Well placed and certainly worth another chance. VSOP (5) clocked-in second behind Me And Chili last time out at this track (Dirt) over 1207m. Has a very good record here including three wins from five starts. One of the major players. J J'S RANGER (1) was in the money two starts back at this track but couldn't back it up last time when sixth, beaten 8 lengths, at Churchill Downs (Dirt) over 1308m. Has the ability to return to form. GOLDEN HORNET (3) has not won for a long while. Last raced on August 20 when beaten 4.5 lengths into fifth at this track (Dirt) over 1106m after he gave away a big start. Likely improver who should be about the mark.
