Forest Edge isn't one to rely upon but at least knows how to get his head in front, unlike Lupo D'Oro. Rambo Will has proved frustrating lately but Links Drive Lady and Clear Spring arrive at the top of their game, though the handicapper is starting to sit up and take notice. Captain Scooby should handle the ground better than most but Midnight Feast returns from a lay-off and Stonecrabstomorrow is essentially a plater. GALATIAN came right to form on the Polytrack last time but is still on a winning mark on Turf and can follow up here if in the same mood. Perfect Pastime refused to settle last time but also has claims if that run is ignored as he wouldn't have enjoyed the fast going when only third to Clear Spring at Brighton earlier.
