A big field, but the possibility of a messy race, with no guaranteed front runner in the field. Knowing who this will suit isn't easy, but the veteran WHO AM I is less likely to be inconvenienced by it than a few and might be able to record another win at a venue he likes. Plantagenet , Chantecler and Pearlita all come her in good form and if giving their running, should fill the places. Preference for second is for top weight Chantecler from a yard that's going well, and this small step up in trip should suit.
