Tennesse Waltz has won twice on ground with some give in recent weeks but acts on this surface and should give a good account despite a big weight. Complicit hasn't won in almost three years and has been running poorly on Turf but MASALAI is a progressive type who was having only his fifth start when a close fourth here last week and can get off the mark. Three Majors doesn't win very often but has gradually slipped to a winnable mark while Annie Irish would figure if repeating her penultimate run at Gowran though she seems best on soft going. Iconic Figure let supporters down over 7f here last month but should do better over the extra furlong.
