Meu Capitano

Well suited to a straight track and completed his hat-trick last time; won a sprint race by 1½l last month here (6f); his victims included Questioning, Bereave and Speed Machine; leading contender

Behind Meu Capitano when finishing eighth last month (over 6f here); a long time since his last success; not a great record second time out after a break and others are preferred

Verdict

Future Variety is one to be feared while Questioning will not be without market support. But MEU CAPITANO is a confident pick. He should be able to confirm placings with Questioning, Bereave and Speed Machine and has won here before.
