Squad has been running well over 2m of late but is a winner over C&D and should be thereabouts. Toughness Danon can also figure after going close again over track and trip last time but he'd earlier finished behind LASER BLAZER when the latter was third over 1m4f here. Jeremy Gask's charge had also beaten Squad earlier in the season so gets the nod. Viva Diva has place claims but Passion Planet remains 6lb higher than her win at Newcastle in August.
