VELOCIA (2) is the horse to beat on consistency and suitability, with one win and four places from five attempts at this track and distance and another solid third in C1 company last start when beaten just under two lengths as favourite. AMI NAS (8) brings a similar last-start profile, having fought hard when second to Nubian after winning over this course and trip the run prior, and the 1500m record reads well enough to make him a genuine danger. VIALE (9) has the more uneven recent form, including a second-last finish two back, but she is a track-and-trip winner and the latest fifth in C1 company was at least a step back in the right direction. FINE HIME (12) has done little wrong in her past two, winning by two and a half lengths before a one-length second, and her record at this track and distance keeps her firmly in the winning mix despite the wide draw.
