Verdict
E Minor is taken to get back on the winning trail she should get the fast pace she needs and stay on to strong for her rivals. Kent will also relish the conditions but he has never won off a mark this high and he may find one or two to good. Twice is also one to consider if he looks fit enough to do himself justice after a long absence he is a course and distance winner who goes on the ground. Rayik is also another to consider with ground sure to suit.
