AURORA MAJESTY proved effective on this speed-favouring track when winning here in July and ran a cracker when third in a higher grade at Goodwood recently. He's taken to resume winning ways. Crimson Spirit brings excellent course form to the table so is feared most, while Native American, useful at his peak, could be a different proposition with cheekpieces restored.
