Went into his autumn break after winning 4 on the trot, latterly a 2850m Class A here last September. Barefoot for re-entry but may first need to blow the cobwebs away

Has looked a different horse since adopting current configuration, most recently winning a 2850m Class A with ease here 2 weeks ago. unlikely to repeat but can still give this a good go. First 5

Honourable 6th of 14 to JABALPUR (6) in a 2100m Class A here on New Year's Day. Is plainly better than that though and should not be entirely written off

3rd of 12 to JEEGHA PRIDE (8) in a 2100m Class A here on 3 January. Has won his last 3 under these conditions and can pick up a 4th

6th of 12 to JABALPUR (6) in a Gr.3 over course and distance early last month and even though reconfigured appears to have limited prospects

Won his last 3, most recently a 2100m Class A on New Year's Day. Has nothing to prove over course and distance and in current form it is hard to see him being bested

3rd to JABALPUR (6) here last month before finishing lacklustre 6th of 10 in a 2850m Class A here 3 weeks ago. Is not out of the picture but others are better-in

Authoritative winner of a 2100m Class A here on 3 January. Boasts solid references over 2700m here and can play a leading role

Ran 3rd in a similar Gr.3 prior to finishing last but one in a 2700m Gr.1 here on 22 December. Is confirmed in the day's configuration and should logically bounce back and finish in the mix

Race Overview
Like a horse reborn this winter, JABALPUR (6) has won twice under these conditions recently, latterly imposed over 2100m, and is eminently capable of pulling off the 4-timer. JEEGHA PRIDE (8) beat JASON (4) here earlier in the month but Thomas Levesque's colt races barefoot this time and can turn the tables.
Selection:
6 - 4 - 8
