There was something a little bit special about the way EQUILATERAL won at Doncaster on his return and given that he brings a different profile into the race than many of his rivals, he's taken to take this step up in class in his stride here. Sioux Nation returned to form last time out and will relish a return to fast ground here for the yard that won this last year. If there's one that may have gone under the radar coming into this, Clive Cox's filly Heartache may get over looked in the market after a disappointing run last time out but there's a fair chance she will have needed that outing.
