El Libertador is chasing a hat-trick after a couple of wins at this track last month but was all out to score by head over C&D last time and has been raised another 5lb. Ay Tay Tate is not the most consistent but has won a couple of sellers here recently including last time when beating Eagle Nebula, who runs in the previous race, while Prince Blue may struggle upped in class. SUNSET PLACE has ran a couple of decent races this year, both times at this track, and Jonathan Geake's charge gets the vote as he had Kavaloti behind when third here last time and looks ready to strike off his current mark.
