A case can be made for several of these, though none appeal more than FORCE PUBLIQUE whose second over 1800m at this level last time gave the impression that this extended trip will suit. CASUS BELLI, FUTUREWOLFF, CARNELO, CHABAL and FULL GO are experienced hard-knockers with sufficient means to threaten the selection, especially in receipt of weight from their younger rival. EXPRESS YOURSELF and recent maiden scorer PALACE GUARD can get into the picture too if overcoming awkward starting berths.
