DRUNK ON SAKE (8) returned to winning form as favourite last start, scoring by 1.75 lengths over today's journey at this track (Synthetic). Has a good record at this course and distance, including four wins and two placings. Top chance. PERSISTEN (7) finished out of the money two starts back then he got a long way back and was beaten 15 lengths when eighth over 1710m at Delaware Park Turf a month ago. Finds a suitable assignment and can find winning form. NEOKING (2) finished third at this track two runs back but didn't measure up last time over 1673m at this track (Synthetic), finishing 13 lengths back in eighth. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including a win and two minor placings. Tackling a more suitable race this time so he is a major player. HOLD YOUR APPLAUSE (3) turned in a decent effort last start to finish second over 1673m at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run.
