ULTIMATE RHAPSODY (4) turned in a much better run at his latest appearance, finishing third over 1609m at this track. It doesn't get any easier but he is capable of another big performance. KISSMELVIS (5) was in the money two starts ago then things went amiss last start when he broke and finished a distant last over 2030m here. Big chance if he brings his Mitch Manners. DOUBLE SAID (10) finished seventh last start over 1609m at this venue. Generally runs very well at this circuit so can play a big role. IRE OF THE DRAGON (9) has been about the mark of late and must be respected, the latest offering a sound fourth at this course over 1609m. May earn some minor money.
