Sands Crooner gets the vote here with Orverwing and Somoya rating the main dangers. The selection was a fair sixth in a better race behind Spearit last time out. This looks easier and from a good draw he looks a value bet in an open affair. Overwing rates the main danger on his best form but he was behind the selection last time and there is no reason why he should gain his revenge here on the same terms here. Somoya is another worthy of respect as he showed improved form to be fourth behind Xaluna Bay , she hails from a top yard and should be noted in the market.Cativo Cavallino has shown a modicum of ability in two runs to date and is another with place claims but he has given the impression he would be suited by a longer trip in time and for that reason he is opposed. Of the remainder Perfect Treasure is from a shrewd yard and should be noted the market but for the winner we return to Sands Crooner.
