BATTAASH is becoming less and less prone to throwing in a bad run, which was always his Achilles heel. Those runs would follow him getting worked up in the paddock and going to post badly, so it's always worth a check to make sure all is in order before they race, but that aside, he's head and shoulders the best sprinter around and can take this for a fourth time. With the ground likely to be on the quick side for Glass Slippers, it may be left to Liberty Beach to fill the runner-up spot. Ornate outran himself in this last year and will give them all a target to ai at once again. He can hold on for third.
