Strong pace with William Barows and Hero Call crossing from wide out. GULDEN DRAAK (2) is a last start winner over 1700m at this track, making it two victories from three appearances this campaign. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Expecting a bold showing. DURA EREDE (1) hasn't made an impression lately despite market confidence. Last start could only manage fifth over 2000m at Morioka Dirt. Rates highly in this line up. Gets his chance. REBAKE FULL CITY (5) comes here off a break of three-and-a-half months. Scored over 1800m at Ohi at the start of last prep. Comes here with definite top-three claims. WILLIAM BAROWS (10) is back at the races for the first time since May 28. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 1600m at this track. Looks one of the genuine hopes in the race.
