G3 Geelong Cup winner ONESMOOTHOPERATOR (1) is capable of winning en-route to a Dubai campaign. Finished midfield in the G1 Melbourne Cup and will appreciate drop in class on return to the UK. The step back up to 1m4f for the second time looks like an interesting move for CLAYMORE (2). Stayed on nicely into third at Newcastle 20 days ago. PARADIAS (4) cannot be ruled out racing off the same mark as when third over this trip at Southwell last month. HAKU (5) is five from six over course and distance. Requires the utmost respect back at this venue.
