12 Offical Sox looked nice but got locked in last time in a V85 race won by Mellby Legacy. Tricky lane, but the filly should still have the best chance to win the race.

11 Carezza did well last time. It was the first race in over a month and the form is probably improved now. Early contender.

2 Bourbon Split galloped in the last race but put in a strong effort before that. Is good enough to fight for victory.

4 Quick Action O.C. was good in the comeback last time and will be in the mix here with a similar effort.

5 Gustav Simoni comes from a very tough V85 heat and had to open fast. Now the capable seven-year-old is stepping down in class again and in his latest win he beat his rivals very easily from the lead. Good chance in that position.

9 De Chambeau finished alright in the last V85 final. Top form and down in class. Passes many opponents here.

8 Devs Donator has scored two straight wins and looked brilliant.

1 L'Amiral S.J.S. should be improved by a run under his belt. Early choice but needs some racing luck.

4 Icarus BR got into trouble in the last race but still kept up a decent pace from a gear. The position is appealing and the distance is right. Ranked highest in a wide open race.

2 Apollo Creed was ahead of the our pick the last time they met and considering the starting position the eight-year-old is one of the hot favourites.

6 Hero Boom Bay got a much needed run under the belt in the last race and will be improved for this race.

1 Ottens Idol has the chance but has not shown any form of late. Registered barefoot in front is an exciting change.
