From the inside gate The Last Duke has enough dash to lead, joined by William Robertson and Ziyasha pressing on from wider out. BUFFALO STORM CODY (1) beat many of these with ease last time. Has a top strike-rate overall and unbeaten from four tries this course and distance. Saluted last start in the G1 Computaform Sprint at this track over 1000m. Should camp just off the leaders and is the one to beat again. MOUNT PINATUBO (6) was always forward and boxed on to finish fifth over 1000m in the G1 Computaform Sprint at this track last time. No match for the winner but can feature in this line-up. Same goes for ZIYASHA (5) who finished seventh in the same race. Must be respected. WILLIAM ROBERTSON (2) was yet another to come through that race, finishing ninth and 4.5 lengths from the winner. Better than recent efforts suggest.
