Verdict

TUPERO beat a subsequent winner with a bit in hand at Newcastle last time and this unexposed sort can defy a 4 lb rise. Last year's winner Stellarmasterpiece is the obvious threat as she bids for a fifth win around here, while Kitsune Power went close on his return last season and is much lower in the weights now.
