Albuhera (IRE) could be the answer to a tricky race. It is difficult to gauge how horses are going to progress from two to three so its a race to approach with caution. At least Albuhera acts on the going and Mark Johnston's runners have been showing some form. Goggles should make up into a nice horse this year but today's trip on this ground could find him out today. Nafisah and Preferred can also be expected to do well in time but may need this run. Persuade, who will be fit, acts on the ground and stays the trip, should give backers a run for their money.
