Reasonable tempo with Lord Gannicus probably leading but a few others should keep him honest. WUBIN GOLD (9) sat off the speed before running down her rivals last start over 1400m. Sectionals say she was closing off strongly there, so the rise to the mile shouldn't be an issue. Nicely drawn for Turner and she can continue her winning ways. KNOT SECRET (1) proved too good when rising to the mile last start, scoring by 1.2L at this track. This looks to set up similarly to his latest effort and although he rises in weight, he should be right in the finish again. SOWAR (6) has been running on strongly his past couple and looks to have his hoof on the till. Recent figures suggest he's good enough to feature in a race like this. Wouldn't surprise to see him come out on top. ODINAKA (8) is better than he showed last start and getting back out to this trip can see him bounce back. TIN CHOOKS (3) is looking for the hat-trick after a big win at Belmont last start. Include. SUGGESTED PLAY: Wubin Gold can build on her impressive record.
