FIRE IN BABYLON beat Sawwala and Enzaal when second over 1m4f here last time and should figure. Aureate finished tailed off in the same race and is closely matched with Adili on running here in April. The latter scored over track and trip on that occasion and can figure if fully primed for his comeback while Proud Times won over course and distance last year off today's mark and could also be thereabouts.
