MISSION CENTRAL looked potentially smart when routing 27 rivals by 8 lengths in a maiden at this course and distance 21 days ago and can take this step up to Group 3 in his stride. Ipanema Queen is improving and showed plenty of zest when winning a listed race here last time, while Mushaffar rates a good prospect having made a winning debut over C&D 2 weeks ago.
