GREAT BUY (1) beat a similar field here a fortnight ago and will have no issue with the extra furlong on offer here. The query will be the four-kilo weight rise but he is in a great space this campaign and can repeat the dose. SUPREME TIMES (2) started favourite behind the top pick when finishing runner-up here a fortnight ago. He gets a two-kilo swing in the weights this time which may be enough to see the tables turned. VENTING (3) is resuming from a spell and though his form at the end of his last campaign was over a middle distance, he has won twice from four starts over this trip. If they go hard up front early on, he could have the last say. NICOTERA (4) did not fire last time out after putting together a brace of wins at his prior starts. The key here is the 7-kilo weight drop from that most recent start and he is definitely worth another chance.
