STRONG QUALITY (3) was quickly into stride and went on to score by a nose last time out over 1m1/2f in stakes class at this track (Turf). Will take advantage of the good draw. Going up a level this time but he deserves plenty of thought. BEATBOX (10) did a good job last start to finish second at Listed level at this track (Turf) over 1m1/2f, beaten a nose. Should be at his peak now. Joel Rosario stays aboard and although yet to win has been in the money on three occasions. Expecting a bold showing. CHASING THE CROWN (2) was too good when resuming in an easier race over 1m at this track (Turf) last start, scoring by 0.8 lengths. Group 2 winner GIGANTE (11) scored last start in Listed grade at this track (Turf) to make it four wins from eight starts this campaign. Takes on tougher opposition this time but can figure in the finish.
