Godolphin's Calvados Blues had an injury scare earlier this week and may struggle against some classy rivals who have had a trouble-free preparation. California Memory hasn't proved a great traveller in the past and may be best watched away from his beloved Sha Tin but PRESVIS is an established globe-trotter and can confirm Meydan running in March here with River Jetez, Wigmore Hall and Royal Bench. Luca Cumani's gelding found a mile too sharp in Hong Kong last time but will have no excuses today if not improving on last year's fifth in the race when just behind Waikato. Gitano Hernando didn't get the run of the race when behind California Memory, Irian and River Jetez in the QE II Cup in Hong Kong three weeks ago and it would be no surprise to see Herman Brown's charge turn the tables in this.
