Battys Dilemma is very interesting here, and with Ben Pauling's team having been in decent nick of late, it would be no surprise to see him win on his rules debut, just as he did as a pointer. However, he does still have well being to prove and there are no concerns on that score with POGUE, who can make a successful return to this sort of trip. Captain Zebo is very much respected, but will do well to defy a double penalty, while Native Fighter and Ain't My Fault are not forlorn hopes.
