There appears like there’ll be good speed in this event, with MIDNITE PROMISE (Moore), SPARKLING SWORD (Keane), MEGATRON (Take), CURLING LUXURY (Castellano) and LOTUS BREEZE (Bowman) all capable of taking-up forward positions. I can see the first half of this event being run at a solid tempo and therefore I’m happy to be with the runners that might settle midfield or worse. From that perspective, the runners that I think fit that mould and have the right form are ALL YOU KNOW (De Sousa), FORMULA GALORE (Teetan), LETSGOFREE (Poon) and potentially POSITIVELY HIGH (Purton). All You Know gained a deserved win last start over this course and distance and there was some authority with the victory. He has each way claims again. Formula Galore can win this. He comes through a good form race that has boasted three subsequent winners (Flying Quest, You Have My Word and Travel First) and he has managed to finish in the first-four in five of his eight starts over the course and distance. Letsgofree might appreciate the drop back to a mile and found the worst part of the track when on the all-weather on his last outing. He might fill a minor spot. Positively High led over this course and distance last time but the booking of Purton and some minor gear changes might indicate a more conservative approach this time. He has a little to find on recent form, but his best is good enough to be thereabouts. Of those on-pace, Curling Luxury’s win rated quite well but he has 4.5kg more to carry this time which might anchor him somewhat.
