Toccata Blue has had plenty of chances but his overall form suggests he has a fine chance of finally getting his head in front and produced a good effort in a strong maiden here a month ago. He'll take some beating but EBADANI has the pedigree and scope to spoil the party. Mick Halford's colt is related to several smart winners and made a promising start to his career behind Little White Cloud here in November. Just behind that day was Eusepio, who already had experience, and the places should be confirmed. Bosworth Field may do best of the remainder despite a very moderate debut.
