Solid tempo anticipated with Heartford House heading them off.
NEVER SOBER (5) has failed to threaten for a while but he has been contesting far tougher races than this. Freshened up since his last outing forty-six days ago. Looks very well placed with the claim out of the inside gate. Veteran BOMBAY STYLE (1) chimed in late but just failed to pick up the winner last start over 1420m at this track. The small field suits his racing pattern so coming back a little in trip won't be a bother. BE SEATED (3) raced handy and finished a little too well for Bombay Style here last time. Yet to win in seventeen tries at this distance which is the concern, but he is racing well and should play a big role. DREAM TO ME (2) has been poor in two runs this prep but has won four from nine at the trip so cannot be ruled out. Doubt the other runner HEARTFORD HOUSE (4) has the ability to test these. SUGGESTED PLAY: Never Sober to win.
