Verdict

It is hoped that Mark Johnston's classy four-year-old MILDENBERGER can make up for lost time this season and last season's Dante runner-up could just prove too classy for a handicap, even a strong one such as this. C&D winner 12 months ago, Crossed Baton may provide the sternest opposition and Lucius Tiberius can provide a clean sweep for those atop the weights after a sound effort in a French Group Two on his stable bow.
  1. Mildenberger
  2. Crossed Baton
  3. Lucius Tiberius
