Red Admirable, Rif Raftou and Triopas bring recent winning form to the table. Of the trio, Triopas looks the most likely to follow up now that connections have found the key to him and his scope to improve further. Irish import Run Don't Hide is one to note in the market beforehand, as is RED TORTUE. Jennie Candlish is adept at placing her horses to advantage and that may be the case here. Her runner has dropped significantly in the weights and this will be the lowest grade he has raced in. The eight-year-old will have needed his latest run and the booking of Mitchell Bastyan looks a positive sign.
