MISTER BANJOMAN (6) ran well below his best last time over 5f at this track, beaten 8 lengths into sixth at 9/2. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Among the leading chances. FREE SQUARE (1) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 4.5 lengths when fourth over 5f at this track a month ago after being in the firing line on the bend. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. PAPERBACK HERO (4) was a dominant winner last time over 1m1/4f at this track, getting home by 2.75 lengths. Has a superb record here at the journey with three wins and a 100% top-three strike rate. One of the main contenders. MAXIMUS MOMENTUS (7) was beaten 7 lengths into fifth in a 7f contest at this track a week-and-a-half ago. Well placed and can figure in the finish this time.
