Strong pace from Hotarubi, Pressonregardless and Aladdin's Lamp. PRESSONREGARDLESS (2) turned in a fine effort to win by 0.8 lengths at this track and distance last time out to continue his outstanding recent form. Loves it here and won only try course and distance. Hard to fault recent form and should go close. OLIVIA'S WAY (5) is close to a win based on recent form, the latest effort a commendable third against better opposition over 2000m at Group 2 level at this track. Goes well at this journey with three wins and three placings from seven starts and is sure to run well. THE EQUATOR (3) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a spell on April 4, finishing fifth and beaten 6 lengths over 2000m in the G1 Champions Challenge at this track. Now under the care of new trainer Stuart Pettigrew. Looks one of the genuine hopes in the race. ATTICUS FINCH (1) missed the placings two runs back then didn't do any better last start when 6 lengths away in sixth over 2000m at this track. Well placed and can figure in the finish this time.
