ACES HIGH (1) is finding the breakthrough elusive, beaten 67 lengths into seventh at his latest appearance over 2200m at this track. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Expected to be in the finish. FAVOLA MODERNA (5) doesn't win very often but ran a strong race last time out over 3000m at this track, finishing second and beaten 1.5 lengths. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. MEME XAM (8) finished midfield when resuming from a break last start over 3000m at this track, beaten 18 lengths when well in the market. Should be prominent from the outset. Winning claims on best figures. SECRET BOSS (9) turned in a fine effort to win by 1.5 lengths at today's course and distance when first-up from a spell last time out. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat again in this suitable race.
