Strong tempo with Morning Haze and Flintlock leading from Crown Sihr and Ballsy. FLINTLOCK (8) is going well and is knocking on the door, last time out finishing second over 1300m at this track and only a nose from the winner. Should be prominent despite the awkward gate. Sure to be in the finish. MORNING HAZE (5) has been in the money at his last couple of runs, the latest when third over 1300m at this track. Seiya Tatara who has two wins when partnering stays on. Should be in the finish. CROWN SIHR (6) finished fourth over 1300m at this track last time out following a determined win two runs back. Should camp just off the leaders. Capable of testing this field. AL HIJR (9) proved too strong two runs ago but was not as effective last time out when 11th over 1400m at this track, beaten 18 lengths. Should be thereabouts.
