The Kings Baby likes to get on with things from the front usually and if continuing his tactics should ensure a fair and even pace with Highland Fling and Charlie Stout chasing in behind. The pace should establish a good passage in to the race for the consistent SHE'S A STAR who will be thereabouts at the business end of the race with Diamond Cauchois and the returning Drumacoo battling for the minors.
