If Not For Dylan (9/4), Heavey (9/2), Cap St Vincent (9/2), Amalfi Doug (13/2), Frau Georgia (7/1), Cilaos Glace (7/1), Bafana Blue (18/1), Eaglehill (28/1)

AMALFI DOUG is the current Perth modern-day record holder with 7 wins and he can add another victory to his tally at his favourite course. Having had 5 months off, he looks to have been finding his way back to form on his last 2 starts and is now 6 lb below his last winning mark. The main dangers could be Cap St Vincent and Cilaos Glace, who are also both well handicapped on old form.
