Youngster JP'S PALACE is going about things the right way for his yard. He is getting better with time and should see out the 2000m but a wide draw is a concern. ARVERNI KING was a few lengths behind the former three starts back but he was returning from a break and has since made good strides. He looks ready for a career- best performance. Watch out for Highveld staying filly KADIZORA who could prefer the track. She hit the front in her last start and perhaps just needs to get the timing right. LUCRETIUS and well drawn BANZAI PIPELINE must be respected in this.
