Well down the field on last three appearances and has too much to prove

Largely in good form this year; dangerous if he gets a strong pace to aim at
3 (8)	C P Brave Bay J:L Hewitson T:A T Millard	J:L Hewitson T:A T Millard	130	tp	0-8049	75	98	-	28d	—	—	—	6.3	—	—

Soundly beaten on last month's dirt debut but probably better judged on earlier C&D fourth
6 (1)	Sixth Generation Bay J:C Y Ho T:Jamie Richards	J:C Y Ho T:Jamie Richards	123	ht	-31511	68	94	-	42d	—	—	—	25.1	—	—
Bang-in-form 4yo who won comfortably by 4l over C&D last month; commands respect

8 (11)	Viva Popcorn Chestnut J:Angus Chung(7) T:A S Cruz	J:Angus Chung(7) T:A S Cruz	118	ht	-42681	63	93	-	28d	—	—	—	14.8	—	—
C&D winner this month but has rise in grade and much wider draw to overcome today

Two wins this year (6f/7f); denied clear run over C&D last time; may still be improving
