The Jim Bolger-trained MCGUIGAN has a 50% strike rate at this track in the last 12 months and can land the spoils here stepping up in trip following a good run of form since December. The 14lb rise for Drakensberg may not be enough to halt a bold run and the five-year-old can battle for the minor honours with C&D winner Alcander and the Denis Hogan-trained With A Start. Elusive Exclusive could go well at a price on handicap debut.
