He may have a bit to find on official ratings with Bigalo's Star, but we'll side with TROPICAL BACHELOR in the seller. Tim Pitt's gelding has proven stamina for this trip and acts on fast ground, and he has put together a CV including some reasonably good form in defeat in handicaps. Still a maiden, he has to put behind him a couple of ordinary efforts, but we hope that first-time headgear can work the oracle. Bigalo's Star is lightly-raced and open to improvement and he is worth a try at this trip, but the handicapper may have overestimated his abilities and this won't be easy. Game Roseanna does not have much in the way of stamina in her pedigree and so has it all to prove, being by a sprinter, while Moggy is worth a try over this far, though her problem may be with the going. Madam'x looks best of the rest, but we'll side with Tropical Bachelor.
