BUFFALO STORM CODY is the standout bet at the meeting. He has gone from strength to strength as a gelding, winning 6 of his last 7 starts, and a career-high rating is unlikely to halt his winning streak. Familiar foe WILLIAM ROBERTSON has a bit to find on the form of a recent meeting but should have a say in the outcome. TAXI TO THE MOON, CHIEFTAIN and KARATE KID are closely matched and should make their presence felt too. Returning RADICCHIO completes the shortlist.
