The Phillip Hobbs yard have been operating at a 27% strike-rate over the last two weeks, and it is interesting that DEMOPOLIS is turned out quickly again over the smaller obstacles after winning with something to spare here last week. If in anywhere near the same form he should follow-up. Of the remainder of the field, dangers look thin on the ground. However, both On The Quiet & Sarasota Star bring potential to the table. The former is eased in grade after a respectable effort when last seen. She showed ability when runner-up on handicap debut earlier in the season. Meanwhile, the latter makes his handicap debut after making an encouraging start to life over hurdles.
