Career wins-runs record of 4-10; out of the money and beaten 7l in the Daily News 2000 at Greyville upped to 1m2f five weeks ago; an easier task than his previous race.

Fair effort (beaten just under 3l) last month at Greyville in a conditions race; successful three times in his last seven starts; more on his plate this time but deserves respect.

Behind Errol Flynn when a respectable runner-up last month in a conditions race; wins have come at a lower level and quite a while since he tasted success; probably unlikely to trouble the principals as facing a tougher assignment this time.

Behind Chronicle King when last in the Daily News 2000 at Greyville 36 days ago; proven that he knows how to get his head in front (seeking a fourth career win); down in class; has a chance from a draw which could make things easier.

Out of the money and beaten 11l in the Empress Club Stakes in April; on target twice in her last four outings; has never won a race of this value; others appeal more despite this looking a little easier than last time.

Consistent lately; decent effort when 40-1 runner-up last month in a handicap.

Verdict
Golden Operator is considered although might not get the trip, and World Of Royalty is an interesting contender with an ideal draw. However, ERROL FLYNN is a firm choice. Based on his most recent success. He is the form pick and given his current winning run, he has every chance of going in again.
