HEARTS IN SNOW finished half-a-length second in a more valuable maiden three starts back and should take some stopping if reproducing that level of form here. Irish Cheer and Aim For Glory are also noted.
EM ROCZ absolutely took off when winning a similar claimer by almost six lengths (With Gratitude second) here last month and is difficult to oppose while that dominant display remain fresh in the memory. Our Eye Candy is expected to put up most resistance.
SEAS COURAGE accounted for the reopposing Judge M (third) when finishing second here two starts back and rates the one they've all got to beat on that form. Comeonwillie is also respected.
MAGIC APPLE finished runner-up in a better race here last time out and can take full advantage of the drop in grade for this assignment. Unforced and Bold Over are also given a chance.
NEVER CEASING has held his form well, albeit in defeat, in recent months and deserves to get his head in front. Connections have found him a real opening against these rivals and he can score at the chief expense of Bytemark and Lost Kodiak.
Destrehan and GOOD NEWS BILLY were both narrowly denied last time and they look more than capable of fighting out the finish of this event. The preference goes to the latter because he is a marginally more consistent sort, while D'ario is also noted.
CASTLE'S GIRL arrives here in great form, having not finished out of the first two in her last four starts. If she turns up here in the same form she will prove very hard to beat, with Sugar Street and A Town Of Attitude looking the biggest dangers.
The experienced VANTASTIC MAGIC has been unfortunate not to pick up a race already in his career, having gone close on multiple occasions, and he has been found a perfect opportunity to gain compensation today. Gangster Mason and Cloud Catcher can fight it out for the places.
