(3) CRACKER has an ideal draw behind the autostart and will probably make the running. If the race unfolds his way he will prove hard to get passed.

An impressive winner of her two starts this year (13) ELNA looks hard to oppose and is expected to make it three on the trot. Still a maiden after twenty-four starts (6) ETOILE D'ENFER is the only realistic threat to the selection but she is likely to keep her status unchanged after the race. The on-form (12) ELLEE DU METZ steps up in grade and warrants some consideration in what will be her first start for new connections.

(1) BERGSON is still lightly-raced at the age of eight. He posted a solid runner-up effort behind Donoratico last time out and in similar form will be a tough nut to crack.
