Certain to be a strong tempo with Silent War, Two Miles West and Fetching Flyer leading the charge. NEBRAAS (1) ran a good race when finishing a neck second of 10 in a Listed event over 3200m at this track last start. He took the lead at the 300m mark and fought on well all the way to the line. He has won once and finished second once from three starts over this course and distance. He looks well placed to go one better. SILENT WAR (2) is racing well having placed in three of his last four starts. Jumps from pole position and if seeing out the 2400m, he should be hard to peg back. UNITED COUNCIL (6) has won three times and finished third once from six starts over this course and distance. She runs well for Gavin Lerena and can finish in the placings. TWO MILES WEST (5) has finished third in his last two starts. He has won once, finished second twice and third once from eight starts on this course. If seeing out the 2400m, he should be figuring in the finish.
