SURMOUNT (7) Tidy effort when 2nd last start at the track but back to a shorter trip. Can give this a shake. NICHOLAUS (5) Was first to greet the judge when winning by 2 1/2L last start here. Always seems to find the line well. Ticks plenty of boxes and looks like value . NEUJAHR (1) Came in 8th last time at this venue. Should bounce back and has minimal work to do from the alley. Should muster plenty of early toe. Worth consideration. MESMERISER (3) Finished 6th last start around here. Should improve here. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Shuuji Akaoka is a key booking. Chance to break through and a could give a show.
