Verdict
Wide open. ABOUND was touched off over track and trip at a higher level last time so a repeat of that performance off an unchanged mark, even under top weight, could suffice. Last-start winner DEAL MAKER has more to do against male opposition but her rider's 4kg claim will help. Stable companion BLINDFIRE is closely matched on that form so should have a role to play too. Recent scorer THERE SHE GOES remains competitive under a 5-point penalty, though that brings ORIENTAL BOUQUET and TIGER STORM into the equation too. HIS LORDSHIP, SAKETINI and PHALA MILLIONS are others with earning potential.
