MR LINCOLN (3) was ridden quietly then made some inroads and finished 3.5 lengths away in sixth last time out over 1m4f at Sandown-Hillside two-and-a-half weeks ago. Steps up in distance. Winning rider Tom Madden stays aboard. Among the leading chances. SMILING ASSASSIN (1) tackled city class latest when fourth at Morphettville, finishing 3.5 lengths from the winner. Faces a far less daunting assignment this time. Best form puts him right in this. EAGLELOU (5) has recently been thereabouts without winning, the latest effort a second over 1m4 1/2f at Morphettville. This is far easier. Capable of testing this field. WUDDZZ (4) hit the frame two starts ago at Sandown-Hillside but ran below par last time when eighth and beaten 7 lengths over 1m4f at Sandown-Hillside. Likely improver with top-three prospects.
