BRIE'S IN TOWN (4) ran a much better race at his second outing last start to finish second over 5½f at this track after being prominent at the corner. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. ART FAIR (8) started at 6/4 last time and ran below expectations, finishing fifth and beaten 2.75 lengths at this track (Turf) over 1m after being in the firing line on the corner. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. SHOGUN (7) will find this a little easier than his third on debut five-and-a-half weeks ago, beaten 5 lengths at the end of 5½f at this track (Dirt). Will benefit from that experience so he is among the leading chances. PERFECT MAGIC (2) is a well-related two-year-old colt on debut. By Maclean's Music from You Asked who has produced some fine gallopers, including winners at black type level. Has fared well at the stall draw and should play a big role.
