Precision Five went close on a couple of occasions over track and trip in August but has not raced since and APACHE GLORY is preferred. The latter finished just behind Santadelacruze when a fast-finishing fourth here last month and can reverse running if ridden a bit closer to the pace. Aldo was not beaten far over a longer trip at Wolverhampton in November and Sixties Love has been thereabouts over a mile of late. Benoordenhout is capable of figuring on his day but it's hard to predict when that will be.
