Verdict

This is probably going to be fast and furious with habitual front-runner Australia Day sure to be near the head of affairs. Laudatory may be better going left-handed but was fifth in this last year when Solaras Exhibition was well beaten. Mijhaar has a touch of class and still has plenty of scope over timber while Cool Sky has won his last two, though might struggle to complete the hat-trick up in grade under a penalty. Richard Newland trained last year's winner and has another leading candidate in DISCAY. All three of his wins have come over further so he'll be suited by the likely strong pace and might still be a step ahead of the handicapper. Roman Flight has each-way claims, along with Purple 'n Gold, but Smart Ruler has a lot more to do than when successful at Cartmel last month.
