Formscan - Beat The Retreat is the only rival in this field to have run over hurdles and could put his experience to good use in what looks a moderate contest. Preference, however, is for POINT FRANKLIN, who wasn't disgraced in two bumper runs in November and looks capable of picking up a race of this nature on his hurdling bow. Moonlight Monarch and Clovis Boy both make their career debuts and any market support is worth noting.
