CHARGING AERO (6) is coming off a last-start fourth, beaten 5.5 lengths, over 7f at this track. Looms large. IMPERIAL KING (9) was narrowly beaten last start when second in a small field over 6f at this track (Dirt) at the first run of the campaign. Record here is impressive with four wins from 12 starts. Bold showing expected. WORA (8) is yet to fill a placing in two runs since resuming from a lay-off, the latest when fourth over 5½f at this track (Dirt) after he was in the firing line on the turn. Will strip fitter and is ready to show what he can do. ROAD TO STARDOM (11) was prominent at the bend and finished second last start over 5½f at this track (Dirt), beaten 0.8 lengths. Will be rock-hard fit. Placed to advantage so expect another forward showing.
