      Verdict

      Royal Alcor has claims if taking to the Fibresand but Torero will need to step up on his previous form at this track. Soweto made the frame over a longer trip here last month but LIGHT THE CITY is a course and distance winner and won't need to improve much on his recent second at this venue to come out best. Ruth Carr's charge gets the vote ahead Mr Dream Maker, who popped-up at 20/1 last time but has yet to race on this surface.
