There is a good chance this race will go to one of the three-year-olds in the field. Both AUSTIN POWERS and Global Exceed have pretty strong form claims and with their allowance here they should both go very well with preference for the former who's yard won this last year. There are plenty of dangers however headed by Amy Blair who loves it here and is back on an attractive mark. Edgar Allan Poe is another previous C&D winner who has dropped to an decent and completes the shortlist.
