ENGINE OF WAR (5) has returned in good order this campaign. Collected his maiden win when resuming at Sandown-Hillside then backed it up with a solid second over 1m1f at Flemington at the latest outing. Takes on a better field this time but he is likely to feature. OPTIONS (1) finished third two runs back at Flemington then improved last time out to score by a nose over 1m1f in the LR Super Impose Stakes at Flemington. Harry Coffey scored on him last time and retains the ride. Finds a tougher race but this looks well within his grasp. MIEWA (2) wound up strongly but just failed to pick up the winner as favourite last start over 1m1f in the LR Super Impose Stakes at Flemington. Meets some better types this time but another big run will not surprise. ARABIAN PRINCE (7) is a two-start maiden who finished fifth, beaten 1. 4 lengths, when resuming from a lay-off last start over 1m1f in the LR Super Impose Stakes at Flemington. Will derive great benefit from that outing and deserves consideration.
