After beating impressive King's Stand Stakes winner Nature Strip at Flemington in February, few will want to oppose his stable companion HOME AFFAIRS here and he can complete a double for the yard. Wesley Ward sends 2020 Queen Mary winner Campanelle, who was awarded the Commonwealth Cup on disqualification here a year ago, from the USA and few know better what it takes to land a sprint at this fixture. Creative Force won the Jersey Stakes a year ago before beating Glen Shiel in the British Champion Sprint here in October and was reportedly lame when a long way behind A Case Of You in the Al Quoz Sprint at Meydan.

That was the Irish raider's second victory at the highest level having won the Prix de l'Abbaye at Longchamp on heavy ground in October. Sacred reverts to sprinting and goes well fresh so a long absence won't be a problem.
