Hamburg Springer makes a quick return to the racecourse following a comfortable victory last time and can follow up here today, Houdini Bay and Justenjoy Yourself should be the ones to chase him home. Mark Polglase's gelding improved out of all recognition to beat Canary Dancer by a comfortable three lengths last week and will take some stopping if in the same mood this afternoon. Today's rival Houdini Bay was a further two lengths away in third in that contest and should get a lot closer today enjoying a five pound turnaround in the weights. Justenjoy Yourself is an interesting entry here having put up some decent efforts on the turf during the summer. She hasn't raced since September but if she handles this surface she should be involved in the finish. Blissphilly is from a top yard and should be noted for any market move, but Hamburg Springer is difficult to oppose in this company and is a confident choice
