AWESOME BOURBON (2) has scored at his last two starts, most recently by 6 lengths over 1m at this track as favourite. That continued the good form this campaign, with three wins from seven outings. Big chance once again. SOUPED UP (9) is having his first run since December 12. Has a very good fresh record, scoring two times including one over 7f at this track at the start of last prep. Has ability and should be right in the finish. PIPER'S FACTOR (4) has been kept fresh for this since a disappointing seventh last start over 1m in Group 2 class at this track six weeks ago. Capable of a much better performance. WAR STRATEGY (7) was well held last time in stakes class, finishing 9 lengths from the winner in eighth over 1m at Group 2 level at this track. Sahin Civaci has been in the money at every start aboard this six-year-old gelding so a top-three finish is on the radar.
