STEAL THE SCENE catches the eye in a tricky finale that is rich on inconsistent types who seem to need everything to go their own way. The selection in the minority as he a proven willingness to dig deep, and it's his proven liking for a scrap that is the most persuasive factor. Daring Guest is another likable type who merits consideration, while Murdanova, who has swapped around a few yards in his time but posted an encouraging effort on debut for his current trainer, also merits a check in the betting after a solid run on debut for hid new yard.
