The retirement of Kyprios has blown this race wide open and that could pave the way for TRAWLERMAN, who pushed him very close 12 months ago, to make the breakthrough at the top level. He impressed when making all at Sandown last month, his first victory since the 2023 Long Distance Cup here, and seems sure to give a good account. Illinois has some big shoes to fill replacing Kyprios but could easily be up to the task. French raider Candelari is 4-5 and improving and can go well.
