BELTA OF A SONG (3) is a model of consistency with top-three finishes at her last four starts, most recently scoring over 6½f at Belmont Park. Can go on with it. ROMMEO (4) finished fifth over 6f at Belmont Park when resuming last start, beaten only 1.5 lengths. Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake. UNIVERSAL HOTNESS (2) broke his maiden last start over 7f at this track, scoring by a neck. This is tougher but he cannot be underestimated. ROYAL SPLENDOUR (13) doesn't have the best strike rate but ran a nice race when resuming from a lay-off last time out over 7½f at Ascot, finishing fourth and beaten 2 lengths. Best figures measure up. Set to run well again.
