Verdict

MASALAI shouldn't be too far off the early pace ensuring a handy position in the early stages of this contest. The three-year-old can continue his improvement in this company following two genuine starts recently, while Complicit and You Gotta Move battle for the minor honours.
  1. Masalai
  2. Complicit
  3. You Gotta Move
