Multiple course winner and producing consistent form; finished tenth in the Grade 2 Golden Horse Sprint albeit only beaten 2½l at Scottsville two months ago; can give it a good shot if reproducing most recent effort and dropping in class.

Verdict
Hawkbill looks a decent option while Gran Canaria rates a big danger. But TEXAS RED looks the one for this. He will not find this as challenging as the Golden Horse Sprint two months ago and can't be faulted for consistency.
