SPY HUNTER (4) showed good early dash last start and held on well to finish 1.5 lengths back in second over 1609m at this track (Turf). Likely improver with strong prospects. K C CHIEF (2) turned in a fine effort to win by 1.3 lengths at today's track and distance last time out to continue his outstanding recent form. Meeting a deeper field this time but he deserves plenty of thought. TREASURE KING (7) showed good early speed last start over today's journey at this track (Turf) before finishing second, beaten 0.8 lengths. Meeting a deeper field this time but he has the ability to mix it with them. Grade 2 placegetter O CAPTAIN (3) turned in another moderate effort last start when 10 lengths from the winner in ninth over 1710m at this track. Suitably placed so can turn things around.

Second run back. Comes off a 54-day let-up. First-up after a year favourite; won by 0.8 len at this track May 4 over 1710m defeating Devilment carrying 56.5kg at $3. Previously second-up 3rd of 8 at this track on May 28 2023 over 1710m, 5.5 len behind Justin's Legacy carrying 53.5kg at $1.80. This is tougher so prefer others.

Form hard to fault. Comes here off a 61-day let-up. At the latest run won by 1.3 len at this track April 27 over 1710m defeating Commandant carrying 56kg at $2.50. The start before that scored a big 5 len win at this track April 5 over 1673m defeating Honesto with 55.5kg at $3.30. Definite chance.

Useful entire. Comes off a 33 day let-up. Most recently 2nd in a small field at this track on May 25 over 1609m, 1.5 len behind Lord Eddard Stark with 54.5kg at $2.50.
