This looks a bit easier than recent tests for Spoon Boss but we’ll stick with EL DIABLO GRANDE, who certainly wasn’t winning out of turn here a week ago and has adapted well to this track. Brett’s Boy chased home a subsequent winner over a bit further here last month but is on a long losing run, though was almost four lengths ahead of Bold Bulldog here in February. Collateral form also gives him the beating of Silis while Minefield may need more match practice.
