        Verdict

        Yungaburra turned into a bit of a winning monster on the all-weather last year but this is tougher and Irish raider City Of Tribes gets the nomination ahead of Daddy Cool. The selection has run his best races on sharp left-handed tracks so this mission looks idea. He has a good draw and only beaten three-quarters of a length in a Listed contest last August, he could have too much class for his rivals today. Luscivious and Daddy Cool are both chasing the hat-trick and because of his low draw, Luscivious makes slightly more appeal. If getting away on terms (sometimes misses the break), he should go close, especially if the rain comes. James Given is in good form and has two likely sorts in Morinqua and Mambo Spirit, whilst Steelcut could reverse recent placings with Daddy Cool. A tricky opener, and City Of Tribes gets the nod.
