O J Selym skipped clear of his field last time in the manner of an improving individual and is hard to oppose here. A similar effort should see him home. Fils de Cresson made hard work of his latest victory but he is defiantly capable of filling one of the places if he is in the same frame of mind. Glanmerin also warrants a mention as he finished last season in good style.
