MIA AND ME (1) was in the firing line all the way and fought on for second last start over 5f at this track, making it two minor placings in a row. Stepping up a level this time but on his best form he is capable of a big performance. BACK TO REALITY (6) is struggling to find the winners' circle but has been around the mark, last start finishing third over 5½f at this track. Has never been out of the placings in three starts at this journey so he is expected to measure up. BUSTA GROOVE (4) failed to live up to market expectations last start when out of the placings over 5½f at this track, beaten 11 lengths. Yet to miss the placings in two starts over this course and distance. Finds the right race this time and can bounce back. SPIRIT OF SEATTLE (5) was well beaten last time and finished at the tail at this track but carries less weight. Rates well in this and can do much better.
