Race preview
HIYA MAITE (second) fared best of the bunch who clashed over this course and distance 17 days ago and is fancied to uphold that form with the reopposing Crimson Sand (third), Strong Johnson (sixth), Conquistador (eighth), Above (10th) and Zargun (12th). A high draw proved to be beneficial for the selection that day and from an even higher stalls position here, he can brush aside the 2lb rise. Captain's Bar is feared most carrying a 5lb penalty for his C&D success last week.
