Expecting a strong gallop with Exceltrain and Little Silver taking up the running over Close At Hand. EXCELTRAIN (2) looks a good chance in this event despite a disappointing effort at Belmont most recently. Back onto a Good track looks a big key to his chances and the inside draw is a big tick also. Pike now hops back in the saddle and she can bounce back to winning ways. CLOSE AT HAND (4) is racing in top order at this circuit and got the job done by 0.6L here just 13 days ago. Up to the 1400m is no issue having won 2/3 here previously and the inside draw should see him get every chance. LITTLE SILVER (6) didn't fire a shot last start at Belmont after some good form prior to that in Soft going. Up to 1400m now where he was a winner just four starts back and Faithfull knows him well. Can feature in the finish. GALAXY AFFAIR (5) is better than he showed last time out and is not to be discounted. INFLUENCING (3) jumped favourite last start against some of these rivals and has to be included. SUGGESTED PLAY: Exceltrain can bounce back.
