Verdict

Course and distance form is brought to the table by many of the runners in this contest but preference is for AFANDEM, who rarely fails to run to his mark and fared better on ground that didn't suit last time. With the ground set to be in his favour today, he can add to his two successes. Boudica Bay has been in flying form this season and is a dangerous player back at her favourite venue, while Lomu is on a likeable mark and could be back ahead of the handicapper.
