SUMMERINTHECITY finished runner-up in this race last year and had his first subsequent start back here last month. He should be sharper for that and Paul Hanagan’s presence is a boost. Emjayem finished ahead of Archie Stevens in a handicap over track and trip recently while Bush Warrior and Malaysian Boleh have both been thereabouts over further of late. Doctor Parkes has a shout on these terms if posting one of his better efforts.
