Verdict
DALBY FOREST is the most exposed but was beaten only a short-head over track and trip last time. He gets another chance in this ahead of Em Jay Kay, who has placed in all three outings so far. Cotai West placed at Beverley when last in action and is preferred to Lastrollofthedice while the newcomer Dorothee is a sister to the high-class sprinter The Tin Man and a half-sister to several others including Group 2 winner Deacon Blue.
