CAFE CULTURE (1) scored at his most recent appearance, getting home by one length over 7f at Kenilworth as favourite. That continued the solid form this campaign, with six wins and three minor placings from 14 outings. Sure to go well again. Group 2 winner ROYAL AUSSIE (2) saluted at the first run back from a lay-off last start over 7f in the G2 Drill Hall Stakes at this track, scoring by a neck. Has been given a let-up of two months since that outing. MELECH (3) is struggling to break through but hasn't been far away, the latest offering a sixth, beaten 2 lengths, over 6f in the G1 Golden Horse Sprint at Scottsville. Should be prominent from the outset. Capable of testing this field. CRUISE CONTROL (5) had been in sparkling form winning three races on end but missed the frame most recently when fourth over 6f in the G1 Golden Horse Sprint at Scottsville. Good record at this journey with two wins and two minor placings from six starts and is not to be discounted.
