Whatsyourstatus has a year's absence to overcome having been placed in a handicap at this fixture. That was over 2m5f but a repeat would see him go close in this. Jack Hackett is also dropping back in trip after his two runs last month but has been looking one-paced so SANTANA PLESSIS, a bumper winner on the track, gets the nod after attempting to make all over 2m4f here where he was caught at the last. Dedanann ran easily his best race to date at Down Royal in June when staying on strongly on the run-in and wouldn't need much more to get into the frame
