Sky Vino was only overhauled late by the smart Silvery Breeze dictating the pace last start over the Valley 1,650m and his record over the dirt 1,650m reads a rallying win, second, third and sixth. He has Joao Moreira to offset gate 10. Talents Ambition has been threatening to break through in all four dirt 1,650m runs from eight outings this term, including a fast-finishing short head second last start behind Loch Tay. He will need a good pace to topple them from gate 11. Veteran Sword Point won both dirt 1,650m runs last term and was a luckless fourth to New Forest at his only all-weather run in January from nine outings this season. Endeared has backed up a perfectly timed win down in grade over 1,400m with a close third to rival Loch Tay over the dirt 1,650m and nose second over 1,400m in back-to-back runs at this level. He will go close.
