Race Overview
The condition of the track (going) could determine the outcome of this contest, in which several runners renew rivalry/are closely matched on recent form. Last-start winner KALEO JIM (1) is most effective on good/firm ground and, with the benefit of his rider's 1,5kg allowance, is good value to land the spoils and follow up. JAKARTA DE FROM (4), JESUBA (2), as well as bottom-weight KISS ME SONNE (6), aren't taken lightly on the strength and consistency of their form.
