DUQUESA BEACH (NAP) was a shock winner of the second division of this last year and scored at Gowran in June. She's rarely beaten far and can gain reward for consistency. Caesar's Comet is another consistent performer in low-grade events while Transition had two Polytrack victories in the UK and has joined Tracey Collins on what looks a fair mark. Lisabetta went up 8lb for her course and distance victory but Indiana Grey wasn't beaten far behind Blankiedoodie a fortnight ago. Albedo hasn't had much racing but has shown potential and is one to keep an eye on.
