Chicago Outfit, Pegasus Prince and Apache Country make the shjortlist here with preference for Chicago Outfit. Pegasus Prince shaped well in novice company on two successive occasions, before taking on handicap company recently, where he was well beaten. This represents a drop in grade and a bold run is expected. Apache Country has shown ability in point to points and is respected. The market will be a good guide to his chances but the trip may be a little on the short side and he is taken on. Chicago Outfit is lightly raced but is decent, having finished runner-up on his last two starts, with his latest run being his best to date. Chicago Outfit is progressive, and is taken to land the opener.
