Recent winners Gallantry and Blue Moon are both upped in class here and will need to find more while Tevez looks high enough in the handicap now. In contrast, She's A Character has slipped down to a tempting mark and could figure but the vote goes to MIAMI GATOR. Adopting his usual front-running tactics on his return from a break at Wolverhampton, Elaine Burke's charge found only the progressive Final Drive too good and will take the catching here with that run under his belt.
