HUSH OF A STORM (3) returns from a break of nine weeks. Genuine performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a third over 1m1/2f at this track. Expected to bring the good form from last campaign to this contest. TAPIT SHOES (1) improved sharply on his sixth two starts back at this track (Synthetic) with a win over 1m2f at this track (Synthetic) three weeks ago, getting home by one length after being prominent at the turn. Meets a stronger field but he is good enough to figure in the finish. YAMATO (11) finished eighth last time out over 1m4f at Gulfstream Park, beaten 3 lengths. Is very effective at this distance with four wins from 10 runs. Sure to be competitive. SANTORINI (8) finished third when resuming two runs back at this track (Synthetic) then progressed nicely last time out to score by 0.3 lengths over 1m at this track (Synthetic). Looks well placed so expect another big run.
