In depth

Verdict

Castle Gate is upped in class bidding for a hat-trick and won from a wide draw at Del Mar last year but TOROSAY is preferred in the opener. The latter had a couple of outings at Meydan earlier in the year having finished in front of Big Runnuer when runner-up in this grade before that and is taken to go one better today. City Rage can figure with a recent comeback run under his belt and the unexposed Galloping Mischief returns to action with a chance as does Smiling Angelo.
