BURNING LEAVES (4) showed little early speed last start then picked up the bit in the straight to finish third at this track (Synthetic) over this journey. A repeat of the latest effort will see him in the finish again. MAYNARD (5) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 5 lengths when fourth over 1m at Belterra Park two weeks ago. Facing a tougher assignment but he is good enough to take this out. GREY CHARMER (2) went forward and proved too strong last time out, scoring by 0.3 lengths over 1m1/4f at this track (Synthetic). Likely improver with strong prospects. SECRETARY OF WAR (3) has S Spieth going aboard after he was well held last time out in fifth over 1m1f at this track (Synthetic). Better than the last run suggests.
