MISCHIEF WARRIOR (6) was comfortably accounted for when second last time out over 1m1/2f at this track, beaten 5.5 lengths after being in the firing line on the corner. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. The engagement of P Morales is a positive move. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot make amends. HIGH HEADED (1) turned in a strong run over this course and distance last time, settling well back then unleashing in the straight to get up for third. Has a win and two minor placings at this journey from four starts and is expected to be in the finish. CITY LEADER (7) ran below expectations last time at Mountaineer Park (Dirt) over 1m, finishing eighth and beaten 35 lengths. Solid top-three prospect. LIGHTNING CHARLIE (8) finished fourth over 1m1/4f at this track when resuming last start, beaten only 1.1 lengths. Fitter so expect a better run this time.
