|---|---|---|---|---|

Despite the small field William The First, Cadenza and On An Impulse can set a decent tempo. ON AN IMPULSE (3) has not raced since he scored over 1400m at this track on November 5. Nicely placed and expected to go well. WAROFDYNAMITE (1) was ridden quietly then made a little ground and finished 2 lengths away in fourth last time out over 1000m at this track a week-and-a-half ago. Steps up in distance today. Major player in this line up. KING RAHUL (6) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest at this track over 1200m. Girish Dookhit who has scored on him two times retains the mount. One of the main contenders. CADENZA (5) won at this track two starts ago but was below his best at a more recent appearance, finishing eighth over 1400m at this track. Suitably placed so expecting a better run this time.
