GRAPE NUTS WARRIOR (1) has switched yards since finishing fifth three weeks ago over 1673m at this track. Nicely placed here and expected to go well. BAD SNEAKERS (4) progressed nicely last time out at the second run of the campaign and finished 4 lengths from the winner in third over 1673m at this track after being in the firing line on the bend. Nicely placed to play a pivotal role. HADLEES HONOR (6) is on a quick turnaround after a moderate eighth over 1609m at this track (Dirt) a week ago. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time. EXCLUSIVE SPEAKER (3) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when seventh over 1673m at this track (Dirt) after he gave away a big start. Placed to advantage so expect a bold run.
