SHINIGAMI (6) wound up strongly but just failed to pick up the winner as favourite last start over 1m1/2f at this track. Should be near his peak for this. Tackling a deeper field this time but he is capable of running another bold race. CRUCIAL TAUNT (1) was in commission last time out but disappointed in finishing fifth over 6½f at this track, beaten 14 lengths. This looks a nice race so expect him to be right in the finish. ITSASTORMYMONDAY (9) turned in a moderate debut over 6½f at this track on October 20 when he was safely held in seventh, 7 lengths from the winner. Will take a lot from that experience. Top-three chance. GLINTINDADDYSEYE (3) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 6½f at this track. This looks a good race for him and he is one of the key runners.
