JIMS PROMISE (3) is close to breaking through after finishing third last start over 1006m at this track (Dirt) when he was in the firing line all the way. Looks well placed so expect another big run. MI PICARO (5) missed the placings on debut two starts back then ran a better race and finished 5 lengths away in fourth last time out over 1006m at this track. Finds a nice race and can feature in the finish. EL ABEULO (2) is a two-year-old gelding on debut from the stable of John Haran. By Discreet Lover from Unbridled Brooke. Expect a bold run. SLEEPY BEAUTY (8) was safely held on debut last start, finishing 6 lengths behind the winner in fourth over 1006m at this track (Dirt). Open to plenty of improvement. No surprise to see him improve sharply.

Racing well recently. At the latest run 3rd of 11 at this track on August 6 over 1006m, 4 len behind Q's Best Bet with 54kg at $5.50. Before that raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 9 at this track on July 14 over 1006m, 2.25 len behind Winsweptwill carrying 54kg at $4.40. Ideally placed to play a significant role.
