Bealach finally opened his account when scoring over 1m6f here last month. But he’s been raised 5lb and BILL CODY is preferred only 2lb higher than when winning over 2m2f at the track to complete a double. His earlier success came over course and distance and the hat-trick looks a distinct possibility for Julie Camacho’s charge. Kangaroo Point debuts on the surface having won over 2m at Kempton but is preferred to Looking For Carl on that form.
