FLY COMMANDER (9) showed good early dash last start and held on well to finish half a length back in second over 7f at this track (Dirt). Meeting a deeper field this time but he is up to the challenge. SO GRAND (11) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when one length away in second over 6f at this track (Dirt) when he was handy all the way. Steps up a level but he is up to the task. SILVER ORE (8) finished third last start over 1m1/2f at this track (Turf), beaten 11 lengths. Placed to advantage so expect a forward showing. FIRSTFLASHOFMOON (2) returns after six-and-a-half months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a sixth over 1m at Gulfstream Park (Dirt). Opened last prep with a minor placing at this track over 6½f. Solid top-three hope.
