Keen battle for the lead with Urban Lad, Not So Dubious and Blinked in advance of Prestige Gundy and All Too Foxy. HIDDEN FUTURE (9) didn't measure up in G3 company last time out but will find this contest much more to her liking. Strips fitter third-up from the break and should get a cosy run in transit from gate two. Rates the testing material. URBAN LAD (4) may have suffered from the dreaded second-up syndrome last time out but go on the solid win over this track and trip when resuming. Can bounce right back. AVE CANTARE (7) has hit the top-four in five of six outings this preparation and rarely puts in a poor one. A must for the exotics players from the inside marble. ALL TOO FOXY (10) was a good winner last start and deserves respect. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 9,4,7,10.
