Caravel gets the confident vote in the finale with Dressed To Dance and Just Oscar rating the main dangers. The selection was a fair second behind Alberts Story last time out. That form looks solid and off the same mark here he looks the one to be on with more improvement likely. Dressed To Dance rates the main danger as he beat Goose Green last time out. However all his best form on turf is with more cut in the ground and he is taken on with this in mind. Just Oscar was third behind Dressed To Dance last time out but is weighted to gain his revenge on that rival here but he remains a maiden. Alberts Story needs to improve off this higher mark. Of the remainder Aussie Blue is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but he is another that is hard to win with and with this in mind for the winner we return to the unexposed Caravel.
