Verdict
TRES CORONAS is at his best here and beat several of these when runner-up over track and trip last month. Louis Steward's allowance could give him the edge today and he can confirm running with Master Of Finance. The latter has since gone close at Epsom when ahead of stablemate Sennockian Star and Spirit Of The Law while One Pekan could also figure off his current mark and Good Contact is preferred to the other Godolphin runner Mythical Madness. Gabrial's Kaka and Elkaayed have something to find with the selection on the form book.
