SNIPE ran well returning from 8 months off and would likely have pushed re-opposing Wasdell Dundalk closer still but for an untidy leap at the last over shorter here last time. Appealing as the type to rate higher still in staying handicaps this season, he earns the vote to build on that effort back up in trip. Iron Bridge steps down in class on return and is feared, while Houston Texas, who has landed each of the last 2 renewals, and aforementioned Wasdell Dundalk complete the shortlist.
