Verdict

GOLDENCENTS (NAP) will likely start a short-price to repeat last year's wire-to-wire victory and deservedly so. Leandra Mora's charge has followed exactly the same build-up this time round and Golden Ticket will do well to finish any nearer than he did when runner-up in 2013. Both Pants On Fire and Fed Biz ran below par in last year's renewal and connections will be hoping for better efforts but Tapiture is less exposed and arrives in fine form having won two of his last three starts in Graded races. Bronzo's Grade 1 win in Chile is hard to assess in this context but he was much the best on that occasion and is worth keeping an eye on.
