Shake The Bucket won last year’s renewal and scored here again off today’s mark in September. Both Temasek Star and BLACK LABEL finished fourth over track and trip on their respective latest starts but the latter was behind higher rated horses than these and Adrian McGuinness’ charge should go close off his current mark. Bittern was not far behind the selection here earlier this year and also finished behind fourth-placed Repare Mon over 1m2f last time while White Lotus steps up in trip for only her second start in a handicap.
