        Verdict

        Plenty with claims in this including Hernando Torres, who beat previous winner Robins Pearl to score here last month. Toga Tiger is back on a winning mark but unproven over the longer distance while Marmalad went close over track and trip on his penultimate start and Archipeligo also has a shout. Elysian Prince has won here but missed the whole of last year and a chance is taken on L'INGANNO FELICE given the course and distance winner landed a tougher race than this at Newcastle last summer off a higher mark.
