Tantric has been in good form this season and is admirably versatile on any surface, so another bold effort can be expected here. Beau Sauvage is a confirmed front-runner who may just find this one mile trip a bit too far while Santiburi Lad has shaped recently as though he is just hitting form and is taken to run a big race on a course which he has a good record at.
