Not an awful lot of strength in depth here with classy Flat performer CARNTOP looking to have a decent opportunity of following up his C&D win of last time although he faces one of two better rivals here. Aardwolf is another C&D winner but he will do well to give weight away here to all his rivals while it will be interesting to see what the market makes of Monty’s Award on his return from wind surgery. Most of the others will be better off in handicaps with Mauricio and Volturnus worth keeping an eye on with that discipline in mind.
