Jamming Eddy was beaten a nose on the Dirt track here last time but was demoted to third and has a poor strike rate. He has the beating of Push Through and the latter also has something to find with Three Ay Em, who scored over track and trip in October. Lemon King made a winning debut when scoring at Del Mar back in August but SEA OF LIBERTY has got his act together this year and bids for a hat-trick of course and distance wins having beaten Big City Bane in a maiden before landing a starters race last time. John Sadler’s grey looks worth sticking with in this.
