Fier Goumier, Saby and Bill Owen look the three to concentrate in this competitive affair and the tentative vote goes to Fier Groumier. The selection was a fair second behind Cool Dante last time out under similar and need only reproduce that effort to score.Saby rates the main danger on his best form but he just gave the impression the handicapper had caught up with him when second behind Deep King and for that reason he is opposed. Bill Owen is another worthy of respect but he has a little to find with Saby on his last run and needs to improve to score. Of the remainder Early Edition is another that could go well but he looks to have plenty of weight and would not want any more rain, so for the winner we return to Fier Goumier.
