A race where there are risks attached to nearly all the runners with plenty of quirks and idiosyncrasies to the fore. Topweight Tim Rocco sets a fair standard having looked to have turned over a new leaf of late while the well handicapped trio of Joly Maker, Chain Of Beacons and Felix Mendelssohn are hard to ignore off their current marks, all have form that can win this. Secret Melody has blighted his chance with late mistakes the last twice after fair front-running attempts and he’s bound to be at the fore again. COURT JURADO has less question marks against him than most having shaped well on his chasing debut for an in form stable, progress looks likely for this Irish pointing winner.
