Group 2 placegetter DANDY MAN SHINES (7) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1m at this track, beaten 2.75 lengths. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. LEGISLATOR (1) resumed over 6½f at this track (Turf) last start and was too good for his rivals, scoring by a nose. Open to plenty of improvement and must be respected. REIQUIST (2) made progress last time out, finishing 2.75 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1m at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. STANDING O (3) is back from a lay-off of nine weeks. Closed last prep with a fourth, beaten 2 lengths, over 1m1f at this track. Has solid form at this circuit with three wins and three minor placings from 10 starts. Definite player.
