Last year's winner Khabaray is rated 1lb lower now but the lack of a recent run must be something of a concern for him. The likes of Makamamia and High Altitude are potentially going to be seen to better effect on this ground, while Quite Subunctious and Clueless Hill rank as potential improvers. So Enjoy should have possibilities of winning races soon, though may want further, and she also cedes fitness here to MASALAI who continues to shape well on the AW and should be capable of snaring a race like this from current his current mark.
