Glamorous Force is consistent but has not won here in five previous visits. Essaka is on a long losing run while Tarseekh has yet to place on Turf. Fast going doesn’t really suit Pastfact but he did win here last month. ATYAAF has also been successful over course and distance this season and has continued to run well from higher marks. Ivan Furtado’s gelding may be the one to beat today with most of the others having a bit to prove at present.
