In depth
Verdict
Another wide open contest rounds off the card with many in form rivals in opposition including Royal Millennium, Ashdown Express and Tom Tun and the confident vote goes to Royal Millennium. The five year old from the Mick Channon yard is game and consistent and is in good form he was a good fourth in a group 3 contest last time out and with the drop in grade sure to help will be hard to beat. Ashdown Express rates the main danger he defeated the selection the last time they met off level weights but the Royal Millennium should gain his revenge on these revised terms. Tom Tun is also worthy of respect he won a class b handicap in good style last time out when defeating Bond Boy and again their should not be much between them. Of the remainder Halmahera is likely to have the race run to suit and could run in to a place but in a race where their is plenty of dead wood Royal Millennium is the confident vote.
