GIANT SPIRIT should benefit from this drop in class having run well for a long way in a hotly contested staying handicap hurdle last time out. Assuming he has the pace at this minimum trip he should go very well. Great Khan looks a fair bet once again to reach a place, and Monatomic won't be too far away if putting in a clear round. Border Control cannot be ruled out, and while the rest are mainly dead wood there is some hope for both Rough Night and Caveat Emptor.
- Giant Spirit
