King of Dixie, Sintennis Mac and Accolation are the three to focus on here with King of Dixie taken to follow up on a promising debut. Sintennis Mac ran a close second on his Windsor debut but failed to justify favouritism here last time. He wasnt beaten far and was staying on at the finish so this extra furlong may suit. Accolation looks a modest performer although he has scope for improvement. He managed a third last time, but was beaten some way and a place is the best he can hope for. King of Dixie ran well to be a close second o n his debut in August, with the winner going on to be runner up in two high class nurseries and running well in Listed company. That form stands out here and provided he is race fit after a five month absence, King of Dixie can prove in a different class to his rivals.
