It could get close between GOLD GIBOSKI and BLACK EAGLE. The latter proved better over 1000m but has drawn towards the outside this time. GOLD GIBOSKI should prefer the distance as well and should have every chance. RAVEN BLACK travelled like a winner when tried over 1400m in what was a powerful contest last time. He now needs to be taken seriously. COGNAC must be better than his last race when finishing downfield. He has ability and now gelded could realise his true potential. BLACK CHEETAH could get into contention again.
