ARCTIC JEWEL (8) got in the final stride to score by a short-head here a fortnight ago when making a winning poly track debut. She was racing in stakes company before that, and does have a fair bit of upside. She carries the same weight, and in a field that is not much tougher, she can win again. CELTIC BLING (9) was a beaten favourite when finishing fourth here last time out over 1400m. She may be better suited to 1200m for now, and despite copping a wide gate, she can have a big say in the finish of this race. Follow your money. LEINSTER (11) has yet to try a poly surface, but his form on the turf has recently been good in some handy fields. He needs to be saved up for the one run, and if he can find the gaps at the right time, then he can win a race like this. HELLO BESS (16) was a beaten favourite here 2 weeks ago when fresh. She strips fitter, so stick with her. MOGUL (2) ran on late here over 1400m, and he can figure in the top 4 again. DRAGON BISCUIT (4) is also worth including.
