CATCH YOURSELF ON is related to numerous winners and should have enough speed for this discipline, so he's capable of making a winning start at the possible expense of point-recruit Martin Plage. Several of the others are closely matched on form but Jackson Lamb is open to improvement, so he's another one to consider.
