COVER CHARGE is an unraced son of Erik The Red from the Corne Spies stable with Ryan Munger booked to ride. He is related to multiple winners including Surcharge and Key Worker. He does not need to be a stable superstar to win in this field. The betting market will be the best guide with regards to him and the other unraced entrants. DEAR DOC has finished third in both his efforts to date. The son of Heavenly Blue will love the rise to 1450m. With a bit of luck from the widest draw, he should be the first raced runner past the post. NIGHTSHINE has finished second in both his runs to date. He found one too good in the form of World Attraction last time. The son of Rafeef tries 1450m and if seeing out the extra distance on offer, he should have a say in the outcome of this contest. ANCIENT WRITINGS is a son of Futura from the Michael Azzie stable and Trent Mayhew is booked to ride. If not too green in running, he should give a good account of himself.
