In depth
Verdict
Cold Stare is on a long losing run and probably better over an extra furlong but is eased in grade for this. Society Lion hasn’t won on Turf since 2020 but has also had a pipe-opener. Kapono was second at Newcastle last month and Impeller won over this trip at Doncaster last summer but AS IF BY CHANCE (NAP) is well treated back over his optimum distance being only 2lb higher than when successful over track and trip around this time last year. Cotai West is unexposed over 6f with Emeralds Pride looking best of the rest.
