In a race without an obvious leader, either Top King or Saffron Bright can roll them along. SAFFRON BRIGHT (4) raced on the speed last start over this course and distance and stuck on well to finish second. Worth noting Shoma Kato goes aboard. Ready to go one better. LINK ARMS (2) progressed nicely last start to finish a close third over 1500m at this track. Looks well placed so expect another big run. RETURN OF QUEEN (1) turned in an encouraging run first-up, settling well back then winding up nicely to finish fifth over 1400m at this track. Among the chances. PASTEL DE NATA (3) settled well back and failed to come on last start when tenth over 1500m at this track at his first run back from a break. Fitter and capable of featuring.
