Plenty of early pace with Captain Fenkel and Eskimo to vie for the lead, pressured by Exotique Miss and Flywheel. EXOTIQUE MISS (17) is a very consistent campaigner who is yet to miss the top five in eight starts to date. Has two wins and two placings from four spins here and Dolan sticks in the saddle. Shapes as one of the major players. PRESS LINK (5) hasn't put a hoof wrong winning his first three outings and is racing with a lot of confidence. Draws low for Rodd and cannot be discounted. TRIFLING (16) has been thereabouts of late and will get a soft run from gate two. In the mix. EDITED BY (9) is two from two over this journey and must be respected from the Freedman camp. Right in this. TRANSATLANTIC (4) next in line. SUGGESTED PLAY: Exotique Miss to win.
