WITHOUT COMPARE (8) led them up last start over the mile here last week, missing by 0.8L. He only rises 1kg for that effort and he still has plenty of upside being a lightly raced commodity. Draws well again today and he can go one better today. BEAUTY ALLIANCE (1) has trialled well since his latest effort 28 days ago where he was beaten by 1.3L. Purton remains in the saddle from that performance and he has options from the draw. Looks ready to take the next step. LOVERO (3) has been impressive in recent efforts and was only 0.8L off the winner most recently. He's raised the bar since coming to this course and distance and this shapes similarly yet again. Hard to ignore what he's done recently. BLAZING WUKONG (4) was far too good here last time out and gets straight back up to C3 now. Drawn out, but he rates highly on that effort and he can make an impression yet again.
