12.45 #1 MASTER OF WAR bounced back to form when finishing a narrow second at Mysore last time out and the five-year-old could go one better with half a furlong more to travel.
Keep an eye on #9 DONTBREAKTHERULES who had a good lung opener last start at an extended trip and market likely to speak volumes about his chances.
1.15 #5 SIR SUPREMO has a wealth of stakes and Graded experience under his belt and that could be crucial for the pick in this maiden affair.
1.45 #6 INDUSTRIALIST has been knocking hard on the door in recent starts and is preferred to earn his maiden bracket.
However a bigger danger may be #3 DAGOBERT, who has dropped below his last winning mark and is entitled to come on for his good second last time out.
2.15 #1 CANDLELIGHTQUEEN performed well when third in a class 3 on her last start and can take full advantage of a drop in class.
2.45 #6 PANAMA has not won in some time but has been holding form before the spell and can go close to winning on this.
#4 EMIDIO was a winner over this distance on his penultimate appearance and should once again be a strong player at the finish if the raw apprentice handles well.
3.15 #4 KIRKWOOD was far from disgraced last time out against good type Cosmos and could have too much for these rivals now dropped in class and distance.
3.45 #6 AMBROSIO has been hammering on the door before the spell and could have more to come on his reappearance. He gets the nod over classic War Hammer who may need this run back from set back.
4.15 Plenty of these have claims but the one that stands out is #1 KNOTTY ASH, who was unbeaten at this course in summer and arrives here on the back of a well fought victory in Dasara sprint championship.
4.45 #5 ICE FLOE did not fare badly in a Listed race last time so she should be competitive at this level and can strike here.
5.15 #1 TOKYO ROSE drops in grade for her seasonal reappearance and looks to hold a class edge over these opponents.
#2 DREAM STAR is a long way down in class and generally races near the speed, can upset.
DAYS BEST: KNOTTY ASH
GOOD LUCK
