WOODY WOOD (1) returns from a break of ten weeks. Consistent performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a win over 1800m at Dortmund. Ideally placed to score while fresh. TRUE AND QUICK (2) scored at his most recent appearance, getting home by 1.75 lengths over 1950m at Dortmund as favourite. That continued the good form this campaign, with four wins and four minor placings from 12 runs. Sure to go well again. RUSSIAN SOCHI (3) produced a reasonable effort when third last start over 1950m at Dortmund, beaten 2 lengths. That followed a win at Dortmund the start prior. Facing a tougher assignment but she is capable of running a bold race. ELMOS FIRE (5) finished seventh over 2000m at Munich at his most recent appearance on October 12. Can make his presence felt.
