MISTER POPCORN (7) saluted at Albany two runs ago. Not disgraced last time out when in contention on the bend before finishing fifth over 1m3f at Ascot, beaten 2. 75 lengths. Won't find this as tough so he is a major player. STRIKING FELLA (9) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1m1f at Ascot, beaten 5 lengths into fifth after being in contention on the turn. The engagement of Ava Catarino is noteworthy. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. DEADLY AND FAST (4) was far from disgraced when third last start over 1m1 1/4f at this track, beaten 0. 6 lengths. That followed a win at Albany the start prior. Meeting a tougher field but on his best form he is right in contention. DUCHEES DEMERIT (5) wound up strongly last time out to finish a nose adrift in second over 1m1 1/4f at this track. Should be winding up late again.
