Plenty of pace from The Way We Win, Smart City and Oriental Surprise ahead of Matsu Victor. Tricky race to assess. ALL ARE MINE (9) hasn't won for a long time but his recent form stacks up in this field. Jumped in the market his past few when beaten and should get every chance from an inside draw today as he comes back in grade. THE WAY WE WIN (12) led them up last start at this track and trip and was gunned down late in the race, beaten 0.3L. Expecting him to cross from the wide draw and with no weight on his back, he'll be tough to run down. WINDICATOR FAMILY (8) disappointed here two back and dropped back in distance most recently, though he has raced well at the mile, just missing out on the win three starts back. This looks a suitable race and he can bounce back in a big way. ORIENTAL SURPRISE (11) is better than he showed last time out and can return to form with Purton taking the ride.
