Verdict
Bukit Tinggi won well last time and he looks a good bet to follow-up; Kayf Aramis and Winged d'Argent are the others to consider. The selection hails from a yard in good form and he picked-up nicely to beat Inspirina on fast ground at Haydock last time. He remains unexposed and as we now know that he will handle the ground he looks a solid bet. Kayf Aramis wasn't disgraced here last time but he is possibly at his best over further than this on slightly easier ground. Winged d'Argent has got the ability to win this but he is at his best on a soft surface so he is passed over for that reason. Mister Arjay is a course and distance winner and he can go well at a price, while Capitalise sees out the trip and is in good form. However, there may be more to come from Bukit Tinggi who is taken to win again.
