Verdict

PHOENIX OPEN was unlucky in-running in a handicap here in November and looks up to winning a race of this nature. Alabaster is likely to find this too short but stable companion Sayesse invariably goes well at this level and should get competitive. Moonmeister has won five times here though is another who is better over further but three-times track winner Tennessee Wildcat is capable of going well. Eastern Racer won a similar race over the course and distance in April so has to be respected.
