This looks a wide open contest, and there's plenty that a case can be made for.
BLACK IVORY looks one that's well in front of the handicapper and will need to win this if he's to get in the weights for the final in March, so you can guarantee connections will be all out to win it.
Malapie was the beneficiary of a great ride from Sean Bowen last time (let the leaders go early, pinched the prize late) and looks to have more to offer.
Kris Spin should have conditions to his liking and can challenge for places, along with
Sykes and
Cobolobo. Templeross might be worth a second look at a big price too.
