Genuine tempo with Richanco leading the way. CELESTIAL STORM (7) resumed with an impressive win when resuming without a trial at Ascot, scoring by 1.5L in this grade. She improved her rating second-up last campaign and that's a worry for her rivals. Can stalk the speed from out wide and score back-to-back victories. RICHANCO (6) made it back-to-back wins with an impressive all-the-way win at Belmont a fortnight ago. He's drawn ideally for the straight course and he'll be right up on the speed once again. Drops in weight for the rise in grade but can bring up the hat-trick. HELL I AM (2) has trialled nicely coming into this and was a first-up winner last campaign. He might find them a touch sharp early doors, but his strength will kick in late and that's where he'll be most dangerous. DUCHESS OF GOSSIP (4) comes in without a trial and wasn't beaten far in Listed company fresh last time in work. Should be right in the finish. HANCHI (5) is better than he showed first-up and can bounce back. SUGGESTED PLAY: Celestial Storm can make it back-to-back wins.
