MONGOLIAN FROST (2) Struggled with the pace when 5th last start here. Happy to forgive that run and has a positive alley. Likely to be well placed early. Expect to go close. SMILING WIDOW (5) Not up to standard when 5th last time at the track. Should improve here. Should be in the finish. TWILIGHT MOON (1) Made some ground when 4th last run at the track and will appreciate a good stall. Jockey Ricardo S Ramirez rates highly aboard. Should be swooping on the field late. Good chance of threatening these. EMBERS OF GOLD (3) First up after 25 weeks and picked up late to win first up last preparation here. Will be facing a significant drop in distance. Can't knock.
