Difficult. A huge field and reserve runner newcomer BASSAM should get into it which could change the whole outlook. Other first-timers to respect are BALLON D'OR, POMEGRANATE, TUSKER and SUPREME WIN. JET JOHNSON did well after a long break and could feature. Similarly BOUNCING TIGGER wasn't disgraced after a rest and should be thereabouts. EPPAGILIA can improve as a gelding.

Two runners could fight this out, COSMIC RAY who needed her debut run and will probably get first run and THANDEKHILE who will be catching late. BELLE VIEW sports blinkers now and has a favourable draw. AFLAME can improve on debut. Watch first-timers especially BORDEAUX BEAUTY and EMERALD CREST.

MAGIC SCHOOL wasn't disgraced in her post-maiden and could get a quick 2nd victory under her belt. GOLDEN BELLE didn't disappoint when backed on debut and will know more about it now. READYSETGLO just won her maiden last time but off bottom weight could give them a go. The balance of the field are all capable of upsetting the apple-cart.

AL MUTAWAKEL has won all 3 starts to date and if almost ready after a break should beat this field. SEATTLE FORCE loves this track but is dropping in distance and could get run out of it. OLD MAN TYME has ability but could have a breathing problem. GREEK FIRE, STAR OF JOBURG (new yard) and FULL OF ATTITUDE could get into the mix.

RIVERSTOWN never raised a sweat to win on debut and looks to have plenty more to offer. He tackles a lot stronger here. CAPTAIN FLYNT is no slouch and needed his last outing. DUOLOGY needed his last run and will be running on late. PROFIT RATIO hasn't won in ages but it could be his day. WAQAAS won well last time and looking to go in again. THE ROCKETMAN can earn.

It could be a repeat close finish again between the Mike Azzie trio DOWN TO ZERO, RIVARINE and ORAVAR as well as the Paul Peter gelding REBEL'S CHAMP. The nod goes to RIVARINE who looked all over a winner but just needed it and was nabbed late. PINNACLE PEAK, BOLD EAGLE and GIMME A WAVE are not out of it and could flash up.

APPROACH CONTROL has ability and won well after a break last time. He takes on classy ZILLZAAL who races as a gelding for the first-time after a rest. The former has a run under his belt and gets the nod. RUSSIAN BEAT ran on nicely after a rest last time and should make the trifecta. SHANGO and BATTLE OF ALESIA (claims 4kg) could fight out quartet money.

Competitive race to end. OUR MAN IN HAVANA was all at sea around the turn last time but will know more about it now. TUNNELOFLOVE just needed his last run and could use pole position to his advantage. AFRAAD will relish the mile trip and expect big improvement. GOLDEN TUNE is maturing nicely and with OYSTER KING, IMPERIAL RUBY and WESTLIFE make up the short list.
