Expecting a strong gallop with Elusive Winter and Military Command taking up the running over Magical Place. The top three selections finished 123 last time and going the same way. WINTER SNAP (3) was the winner and did look impressive. Settled last but came with a huge finish to score. Fitter again and looks hard to hold out despite the extra weight. BLACK CHEETAH (2) settled just off speed and loomed up but was nabbed last stride by Winter Snap. Also fitter again and meets the winner 1.5kg better. Can turn the tables. ELUSIVE WINTER (4) led both those up and fought on well for third. Meets the winner far better this time with the claim and will give a sight again. DEMANDING DAVE (6) is racing well with wins at two of last three. Goes well course and distance and best figures stack right up. Can win again.
