Secratario will find this tougher than the claimer he won here in September and Gabrials Centurion has something to prove over the trip having placed over a mile previously. But UNIVERSAL COMMAND (NAP) will be sharper for last month’s belated reappearance when fourth over track and trip and finishing in front of Star Ascending, Critical Thinking and Jetstream. He gets the vote on only his second start handicapping. Traveller is another stepping up in trip though looks more favourably treated than Berlusca.
