SMARTY ALEX (5) doesn't win out of turn, scoring just three times from 34 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when fourth over 7½f at this track, beaten one length. In the right race and there is no reason he cannot get the major prize. HELAIRE (8) ran below expectations last time at this track (Turf), finishing sixth and beaten 17 lengths starting at 6/1. Meets some better types this time but this looks well within his grasp. GUITARTUITION PLZZ (3) finished fifth over 7½f at this track when resuming last start, beaten only 1.75 lengths. Fitter so anticipating a better run this time. RIPITTOTHERIGHT (6) has not won for a long while. Last raced on May 27 when beaten 5 lengths into fourth at this track (Turf) over 7½f after being prominent at the turn. Must raise the bar but this looks well within his grasp.
