Kingaroo won twice over 1m4f last November but has ran below par in three starts since and has already dropped back to a winning mark as a result. Silent Lucidity has improved for the recent step up to 2m and can figure but the vote goes to TIVERS SONG. He had Carnac and Mojeerr well behind when a close-up second over 1m4f here last time and can go one better over this longer trip. Novestar has the past form to figure but has yet to show his best in three starts since returning from a lengthy absence.
