APPLE ROCK and Apache Creek both arrive on the back of last-time-out victories and rate the pair to focus on. The former looked all about stamina when pulling clear with the runner-up at Carlisle 8 days ago in a strong race for the grade and narrowly shades the vote. Hahadi has been in good form for his new yard of late and completes the shortlist.
