Verdict

Course regular Quartz Du Montceau has won twice over track and trip but arrives badly out of sorts. MASSINI SUNSET also threw in a bad one last time but, if forgiven that, has a leading chance on his earlier second over course and distance to Jupiter Rex as he can race off the same mark today. Goring Two is another struggling at present but with the past form to figure and the same comment applies to Might As Well. Whitcombe Spirit and Sole Agent were both well beaten behind the selection here in February and are harder to fancy.
