PALACE PRINCE had legitimate excuses for a disappointing last start so can consider himself unlucky not to have earned a place in the main event. Stablemate SECRET CHORD, FULLY LOADED and in-form KZN raider AMOR FATI have the means to challenge for top honours. ROYAL EDITION, LAST CAR TO PASS and recently gelded MIGHTY EAGLE complete the shortlist.
