AURORA GREY wasn't beaten far last time out and is proven in all sorts of conditions; with De Sousa set to ride for the first time she looks the one to beat. Golden Doyen looks well-handicapped returned to the Flat while Hawkerland and Denmead could be the main dangers with the advantage of having two excellent claimers on their backs.
