BATTLE COMMANDER (2) showed good early pace over 1m at Ascot last time and kept going to score by a nose. Drawn to take a nice trail just off the speed. Likely improver with strong prospects. GOLDEN DORE (3) started at 17/2 last time and ran below expectations, finishing sixth and beaten 4 lengths at Ascot over 7½f. Will enjoy a drop in class so he is perfectly placed to score. FAME (1) resumes from a lay-off of ten weeks and is having his first outing under new trainer Daniel & Ben Pearce. Finished fifth at Moonee Valley over 7f129yards at the opening run last time in work. Ran seventh in a trial at Lark Hill over 4¾f recently. Among the better hopes while fresh. MIA GUSTO (7) drifted well back last start before storming home to score by 0. 7 lengths over 7f at this track. In form and worth including.
