ORIGINAL IDEA (8) was out of the money on debut two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he settled well back over 1m1f at Aqueduct, beaten 14 lengths into fifth. Perfectly placed and is sure to take plenty of stopping. PIETRELCINA (10) ran below expectations last time at this track (Turf), finishing seventh and beaten 4 lengths starting at 7/2. Ideally placed and is sure to take a ton of beating. STOW ON THE WOLD (2) was prominent at the corner and finished second last start at the first run back from a lay-off over 1m1f at this track (Turf), beaten 2.25 lengths. Stepping up a level this time but on his best form he is one of the key runners. BORDER WAR (9) finished 3.5 lengths from the winner in fourth after being prominent at the bend at his most recent outing over 1m1f at this track (Turf). Worth plenty of thought.
