A small field but a very nice race. POMP IT UP has shown he is very good up the straight. He has disappointed when trying it further but does have the ability and looks the one to beat. BUFFALO BILL has hit his best form with some promising recent wins. He can complete a hat-trick. ROYAL KINGDOM is clearly a lot better than his last run would suggest but is course and distance suited. SILVA CITY has some solid wins against her sex so it will be interesting to see how she does against the boys. SMIDDYBURN is still learning his trade and faces a tougher task this time around.
