NINJA CROWN (4) Brave effort to win narrowly last start around here and solid career start. Very tidy this campaign winning 3 from as many attempts. Sure to be competitive and must include. SALENTO (3) Secured the win by a slim margin last time around here. Won last 2 in succession. More confidence with jockey L Aburto guiding the horse. Appears as a winning threat. ALAMBIQUE (6) Clearly outclassed when 7th last time at this track. Keep in mind. PASSION FOR LAURIE (1) First up after a break. Ran well when 3rd last time at the track and strong performer at this trip in the past. Not hopeless.

Back from a break. Came in 3rd last time at this venue and strong form at the trip. Drawn the rails. Rough hope.

Got the upper hand late when winning last time at this venue. Maintaining a perfect record the last 2 starts. L Aburto rates highly aboard. Should go very close.
