EL ARISH (1) was an impressive winner last time over 1600m at Ellerslie, leading throughout and putting 2.75 lengths on his rivals. Should measure up again. URLAR (7) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1600m at Ellerslie, beaten 2.75 lengths. Must raise the bar but she has the ability to test this field. SHOCKATILLATAP (3) had been racing okay but he was safely held last time out when 17th over 1600m at Ellerslie. Reunites with Courtney Barnes who has been in the money four times when aboard. One of the main contenders. RICHIE'S DREAM (2) produced another moderate effort last start when 5.5 lengths from the winner in sixth over 2000m at Cambridge Synthetic. Has her share of talent and is a top-three prospect.
