Another tough race to call here for punters with very little between many of the leading lights but the principals look to be Mexican, Young Kate and Zandeed and the nomination is given to Mexican. The selection was a fair third behind Galley Law last time out. That form has since been franked and off the same mark here he will be hard to beat. Young Kate rates the main danger as she won well last time out when beating Tirallieur and although she has a penalty for that win she looks a progressive type and should be noted in the market. Zandeed is another worthy of respect on his latest third behind Komreyev Star but he gave the impression he would be suited by a longer trip on that occasion and for that reason he is passed over on this occasion. Printsmith is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but he looks vulnerable off this mark. Of the remainder Get to The Point is from a shrewd yard and could go well at a price but he has been done no favours by the draw and for the winner we return to Mexican
