XENOPHON and TOP DIVISION are closely matched on the form of a recent meeting in a similar contest, but the latter is engaged to run at an earlier meeting so preference is for the former. MISTER WILSON beat ANTONIO GAUDI last time out and could defy an unfavourable weight turnaround as he is progressive and open to more improvement than his familiar foe. Hard-knockers FULLY LOADED and SUPER AWESOME also have the form and experience at this level to fight out the finish.
