Going: Good to Soft
Surface: Turf
Draw Advantage: NoneAZTEC WARRIOR had wide draws to overcome but nevertheless didn't disgrace himself in features. Although by Futura he has shown good pace and shouldn't mind the drop in distance. But it is wide open. KITCHAKAL was supported on debut and put in a decent showing. He took third in a similarly big field even though hanging in and must come on with the run. ICE KINGDOM has shown potential but has now been gelded and can make the required improvement. DIANI and GRANDE LUPO both made progress in their debut races (on the poly) and have drawn well. First-timers in it as well.
