Strong pace with Avignon, Count William and Man Of Consequence paving the way. ASTRONOMICAL BOY (3) is a progressive type. Stormed home late last time for a close-up fifth. Extra trip a plus and looks hard to beat. COUNT WILLIAM (2) scored a big win fresh this course and distance. Even fitter and is an excellent winning chance. BOUNDLESS LOVE (4) was a little disappointing last time but is a course and distance winner with enough early pace to take a forward position. Ideally placed to return to form. COMMANDING (8) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when fourth over 1200m at this track after being in contention on the corner. Hard to beat in this suitable race.
