Verdict

MAJESTIC DELIGHT (5) should sit close to the speed again as he did last start when winning comfortably as the race favourite, scoring by 1L. Bowman remains in the saddle, he's drawn nicely again and with this setting up similarly, he can repeat the dose. KING ALLOY (8) missed narrowly two back before a 1.3L defeat most recently over 5f at Happy Valley. This sets up much better for him and he'll carry no weight after the claim of Yuen. She'll go forward aboard the gelding here and he'll be very hard to beat with no weight on his back. ICONICAL (2) has been racing well at Happy Valley without winning. The inside draw should see him get every chance and he can play a leading role dropping back in class. ALWAYS FLUKE (1) is another back in class today that can bounce back in a big way.
