Verdict

TWENTY EIGHT GUNS has been in fine form recently and she may still be on an upward curve so she may be able to get the better of her male counterparts. Daryl Jacob has a remarkable 40% strike rate on the chase course here and he should get a good spin round off Dance Floor King. Alcala made a promising chase debut and he looks capable of recovering from a rare blip last time out.
