A tough contest to unravel with a few in this that could prove to be ahead of their marks. Two at the foot of the handicap are particularly interesting with Hillary View sure to come on for the experience last time with further progress to come. OSKAR DENARIUS has made a notable stable switch though and despite the rise in the weights he should be able to cope with this mark and complete the hat-trick. Virginia Chick bids for a four-timer but the form of the yard is a slight worry while Master Vintage will do well to overcome his rise in the weights. Subcontinent looks to need some better ground while Western Wave needs to finish off his races with more conviction.
