Captain Dan beat little of note over 7f here last month and goes handicapping for the first time. Tagle won over a mile here recently but has plenty to prove over this longer trip judged on earlier efforts while Energia Flavio went close over 7f here last week. Sunshineandbubbles finished in front of Bell Heather when placed again over track and trip and Zephyros is another regularly thereabouts at this level. See The Sea debuts for new connections having won three times on Turf but SAJANJL gets another chance despite finding one too good in maiden company when favourite at Newcastle last time given the winner that day is rated 69 and today’s slightly shorter trip will suit.
