A large field goes to post for this maiden and the market may prove the best guide as to what is expected but the principals look to be Change Partners, Jubilee Time and Polar Jem and we will take a chance on the last named. George Margasons charge was a good second behind Russian Society last time and a reproduction of that effort would make him hard to beat. Change Partners rates the main danger he was a good second behind Space Cowboy last time but he is one of the most exposed in the field so for that reason he is opposed on this occasion. Jubilee Time was a disappointing favourite on his debut and is obviously thought capable of better. He is sure to have learnt from the experience and is worth noting in the market. Tarwij and Mofeyda also showed enough on their debuts to suggest they can win a race of this nature but we are happy to stick with Polar Jem.
