FormscanBy Michael Graham - CHAMERON, in first-time cheekpieces, could land this tricky race. He has been lightly raced over the last few years, but kept on without threatening in third over a shorter trip at this track in January. The step back up in trip looks sure to suit. The Greek's form is in and out, however, he ran well on his last visit to this track when beaten half a length into second. Furthermore, he has a victory over a similar trip in Perth. In a race of question marks, he does have to bounce back from being pulled up at Fairyhouse in November. Carrig Sam keeps being backed, but has three letters beside his name. He also gets cheekpieces and could threaten if they help. Peaceful Sunday attracted some support in Ayr before finishing third in a four-runner race.
