Akula and Comber Mill produced big runs last time but both like to dictate matters as does Prussian Eagle. The latter will find this easier than last time and may be tactically more versatile, but the presence of so much pace may set this up for the topweight CELESTIAL MAGIC. The six-year-old is suited to these conditions and has a nice turn of foot. His mark is no giveaway, however this is less competitive than recent starts and his class is taken to shine through.
