Though top weight is never an easy burden to carry in these sorts of contests, SPANISH HISTORY is the obvious unexposed contender in the field and should be able to acquit himself well here. The fact his maiden victory came over C&D only increases enthusiasm, especially with a top jockey in Jamie Spencer in the saddle. The hat-trick seeking East Coast Lady and the consistent Wicker are among others of interest.
