Golden Twilight won this nice prize a year ago and has been running well in tough handicaps on Turf this season so has to be on the shortlist despite a big hike in the weights. San Andreas was in excellent form here over the winter and things didn't go right when sent to Newcastle for the All-Weather Mile Championship in April. SAVE YOUR LOVE has never run here but looks a progressive type having battled on well to score at Leopardstown so gets the nod. Londoner scored on his only visit here in October and though mainly disappointing subsequently he hasn't looked suited by soft ground.
