JUDGE MILLER (2) displayed plenty of early toe over 1m at this track (Dirt) last time and went on to score by 11 lengths. Meeting a tougher field but on his best form he is one of the key runners. Multiple Group 2 placegetter MIXTO (3) doesn't win out of turn, scoring just once from 10 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when fifth over 1m2f at this track, beaten 3 lengths. This is a nice drop in grade so he is perfectly placed to score. MYSTIFICATION (4) showed good early pace last time and battled on gamely to finish just 0.8 lengths from the winner in third over 1m at this track (Turf). Tackling a deeper field this time but he is good enough to figure in the finish. Group 3 winner MR FISK (5) is back from a 12 weeks lay-off and he does run well when resuming, including a win over 1m1f at Del Mar at the start of last prep. Solid top-three hope.
