Reasonable tempo with War King probably leading but a few others should keep him honest. Former NSW galloper DARK ARTS (1) has been right there in both runs since joining the Gollan yard and gets up to the more suitable mile journey now. Drawn to get all the favours from the inside alley and will be ready to peak now third run back from the spell. Rates the testing material. The well-related WAR KING (5) (half to G2 winner Positive Peace) got the maiden victory out of the way last time out and will have taken some confidence from that breakthrough win. Can go right on with the job. HOT MAJESTY (2) will have taken benefit from that first-up effort and the step-up in trip suits. In the mix. SLIPSAIN (4) goes well for hoop Thompson who has a win and two placings from just four steers. Top three aspirations. LYNEHAM (7) hasn't been too far off them in much richer contests of late and will appreciate the drop back in company here. Watch for sharp improvement. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Dark Arts each-way.
