CARRYTHEONE still has few miles on the clock and is fancied to build on his recent Gowran success and follow up here at the chief expense of in-form course-winner Maker of Kings. Ex-French recruit Pretreville is another who can have a big say if hitting the ground running on his first start for his new handler in an open Group 3 contest.
