Although a few sit handy there won't be a great deal of early pressure. ARTHUR'S KINGDOM (8) bolted in over this course and distance two starts ago when winning by 2L but was beaten the same margin over 2000m at Sha Tin most recently. Back to the scene of the crime and Teetan hops back in the saddle from a nice draw. Finds a suitable race to get back to winning ways. GO GO GO (5) has been following Arthur's Kingdom home of late, finishing behind him his past two outings. He meets the top pick better at the weights this time and Zac Purton hops back in the saddle. Can turn the tables this time around. RELIABLE PROFIT (3) steps out to this trip for the first time after a disappointing effort over the mile most recently. He maps for a cosy run in transit and sharp improvement wouldn't surprise. KINGLY DEMEANOR (2) improved last start and the extra furlong doesn't appear an issue. Can be in the mix once again.
