This has been run three times and Joseph O‘Brien has won two of them. CLEVER IMPULSE made her debut over the track and trip last month and stayed on nicely after missing the break. She looks the one to beat unless there is something decent amongst the newcomers, Celebrity Icon should be ideally suited by this trip while Step It Out is related to a couple of two-year-old winners. Betty‘s Secret is by Dragon Pulse out of a winner at this trip so should not lack pace. Dandy Lichious has plenty of experience and though looking exposed can get into contention.
