Strong tempo with Vorkuta, Guac On and Don't Tellyafather leading the way. Looks a wide-open contest. DON'T TELLYAFATHER (11) was an impressive winner over this track and trip on debut before being given more time to mature. Winning rider Thornton stays on board and can go back-to-back to start the career. DAITANNA (4) got the job done here at the latest effort and will have taken some confidence from that win. Right in the mix. VORKUTA (3) will be at peak fitness for this and maps ideally from gate four. Can trouble the judge with luck in running. MOFEED (1) is usually thereabouts and may present some value for exotics. CAPITAL HEART (5) next in line from the inside marble. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning towards Don't Tellyafather.
