Verdict
Plenty with claims in the opener including Cap D'Antibes and Desert Land, who both arrive on the back of course and distance wins. Wonder Starelzaam scored here in January beating subsequent winner Latent Heat and went close again last time while a case can also be made for Brunel Charm, Glasvegas and Mr Fustic on recent efforts. PRINCE ROCK is yet another to consider as he drops down a grade having finished a close-up third over track and trip recently and he gets the speculative vote.
