COUSIN ED (6) settled well back and failed to make significant inroads in the straight last start when fourth, beaten 6 lengths, over this course and distance. Faces an easier assignment so he is sure to be prominent. HIGHTAIL FOX (1) did well to score at this track two runs ago. Not disgraced last time out when third over 1207m at this track, beaten 0.6 lengths. Has started eight times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time. EXPRESSO BAY (7) went forward last time and battled on gamely to finish just half a length from the winner in second over 1207m at this track (Synthetic). Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. FAST FIXER (5) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when fourth over 1106m at Gulfstream Park All Weather (Synthetic). Has the ability to figure prominently.
