ESCAPE VELOCITY (4) has scored at his last two starts, most recently by 3.5 lengths over 1m at this track (Dirt) as favourite. That continued the very strong form this campaign, with two wins from three outings. Can measure up again. ICY STORM (8) couldn't have been more impressive when resuming last start when he scored by 8 lengths over 1m1/4f at this track (Dirt). Open to plenty of improvement and is expected to run well again. ALTMEISTER (1) finished 1.75 lengths away in fourth last time out over 6f at this track after being in contention on the corner two-and-a-half weeks ago. Steps up in distance. Commendable record at this trip with a win and four minor placings and is expected to be competitive. MIDNIGHT ALIBI (3) hasn't been far away lately, last time out finishing just 3 lengths back in fourth over 1m1/4f at this track (Turf). Worth considering.
