Verdict

CRUISE TOTHELIMIT ran well over a shorter trip last time out, perhaps serving notice a return to the winners' circle might be looming. He's weighted to go well and can take an open-looking contest. Spitfire Limited is lightly-raced in this sphere and has scope for doing better off a break while Tasaaboq is well capable of getting involved over C&D.
