Perfectperformance is impossible to oppose here with Luberon and Asian Heights rating the main dangers. The selection has nine pounds in hand on all his rivals on official ratings and although he has not run for 377 days his yard would win with the stable cat at the minute and under conditions that suit he will be hard to beat. Luberon rates the main danger on his latest fifth behind Sixties Icon and he should be monitored in the market with fitness on his side. Asian Heights has looked a shadow of his former self of late but would be a danger to all if the rains arrived. Of the remainder, Camrose is sure to run his race but has plenty to find while Dubai Sunday looks outclassed and for the winner we return to Perfectperformance.
