Iolani is seeking an 11th career victory and usually runs well here. Termonator could figure if fully wound-up while Ghostly won off a 2lb higher mark at Hamilton last summer. WE STILL BELIEVE has yet to win beyond 1m2f but has placed over hurdles so his stamina isn’t really in doubt. He’s been in decent form at Newcastle this year so gets the nod. Prince Achille is 0-15 but probably has place claims again.
