Tennesse Waltz belatedly got off the mark over 7f at this track latest, he's 2lb higher now and goes up in trip and is likely to be short enough in the betting to warrant taking him on in his attempt to follow up. PURPLE PARTY put up a strong effort on his second run for this yard recently when second over C&D, with cheekpieces added this evening, he has a decent chance of going one better. War Room wasn't far behind him latest and, fitter now, can threaten to add to his tally at this venue. Manorov ran well enough recently to merit consideration in this while Syndex is one to check in the betting on first start for new trainer having run well over C&D in October.
