Verdict
Sea Ya Mate has the form to go very close in this fairly moderate affair if he puts in something like his best. He is effective on the surface and should give a good account of himself. However he is on a long losing run and may struggle to reverse his course and distance form with Harvey Leader, who finished well ahead of him in a similar contest in February. Prince Prospect also has to be considered and is just preferred as the main danger to Harvey Leader ahead of Better Off, who may just be found out inside the final furlong.
