Mahroos has been beaten only once in his short career and is still improving. He looks hard to beat and is the TEAMtalk selection in this tricky contest. Waverley put up a season best performance in defeat last time on firm ground and will give the selection most to do. Nadour Al Bahr ran his worst race of the season last time out but if he can reproduce his early form he should go close. Robandala was rewarded for his consistency this season when winning at Hamilton. This race is tougher and 10 furlongs may be on the sharp side for him these days.
