Genuine tempo anticipated with good speed engaged. PALACE ATTACK (5) is having first try at the trip but has good speed and shows plenty of ability. Expected to take catching. OPEN HIGHWAY (3) looks the main threat and close to a win. Placed 3/5 at the trip, including last start here. Capable of going to the next level. IMPACT INVESTOR (6) is fitter for two runs back and this easier. Placed 3/4 this course and distance and capable of a better showing. OMBUDSMAN (2) won last start and is well-placed again. Has pace and will be in this for a long way.
