A seven length winner of the Group III ATC Pago Pago last Saturday, the Peter and Paul Snowden trained youngster has hit top form at the right time and can handle the wet if rain continues this week.
The Chris Waller trained Rubick colt Yes Yes Yes was favourite before the draw, but after coming up with the outside barrier 19 has eased in the market to $7.
International racing and breeding empire Godolphin have an amazing six of the 16 runners, plus the first emergency Bivouac.
Godolphin’s head trainer James Cummings puts the polish on five of the six starters – Microphone, Tenley, Pin Sec, Kiamichi and Exhilarates while Anthony Freedman is the the trainer of Blue Diamond winner Lyre.
