Verdict
Bagan who was sent off favourite last time out when third beaten two lengths behind Almost Twilight is sure to have come on for the run and he may be the one to beat with that experience behind him. Golden Lariat and Rosa Parks are from top yards and are worth a cautionary look in the market. It's The Limit will need to have improved a grate deal on his debut running to win this.
