|---|---|---|---|---|

Solid tempo anticipated with Stellar Express heading them off. PATCH OF STARS (7) missed narrowly two back before a 1L victory at this track and trip in a C2 last start, running over the top in a strong win. The form out of that has worked out well and he looks well placed coming into this with Teetan on board. Draws the inside and can repeat the dose. CRIMSON FLASH (8) won narrowly two back before finishing behind Patch Of Stars most recently when settling last in the run. The wide draw is the query, but he showed plenty of talent in defeat last start and he drops in weight on the back of this. Can turn the tables on Patch Of Stars. RAGING BLIZZARD (1) has been superb behind the World's Best in recent events, running strong numbers in defeat over this course and distance. He carries top weight here, but he's well placed here and he can come out on top. LUCKY WITH YOU (4) can put his best foot forward if he runs up to his latest effort.
