Genuine tempo with Oxbridge leading the way. RUSSIAN SNIPER (3) is in a leading metro barn and wasn't far away at Ascot before the narrow defeat here. 2x winning rider CJP goes aboard today for the apprentice. Has been kept on the fresh side and can go one better. OXBRIDGE (1) just missed the hat-trick here on the same day. He keeps a handy 2kg claim and will control the race. Is sure to give a sight. MORGS FREEMAN (2) has been busting to win and also rates well. The 3kg claim brings him right into it. NOTEWORTHY (6) resumes and is good enough. May find this a bit short but needs to be kept safe. SUGGESTED PLAY: Going with Russian Sniper.
