SAN MATEO KAT (9) hasn't been far away recently including last time out when third over 1m at this track (Turf). Has a decent record at this trip with three minor placings from four tries and should prove tough to beat. AMERICAN COALMINER (10) showed good speed here last time over 1m and led into the straight before being claimed and fading to finish fourth, beaten 2.2.5 lengths. Will give a sight. HALAGA (6) started favourite last time but found one better over 5f at this track (Turf). Will appreciate the extra ground. Among the chances. MISSION BELLE (7) settled well back but hit the line well to finish fourth, beaten 2.5 lengths, over 1m here last time. Among the chances.
