Lots with chances but Colm Murphy's STAY GOLD shaped really well when a strong-finishing third here last time and looks the way to go now his stamina is unlocked more. One And Only is weighted to go close and heads the list of dangers, although Howdoyalikeherhome, Queen Nel, Hees Dynamite and Westernersunrise also need factoring into this highly competitive handicap.
