Wide open race. GUERILLA WARFARE has been knocking at the door and could finally get rewarded. He has drawn well and should have every chance on form. WAR OF KINGDOMS over-raced in his only try over the distance. He has done well against stronger and must go close if settling better. TOMMY ATKINS showed good resolve to get there for his maiden win and has room for further improvement. FATHER CHRISTMAS should prefer returning to racing over 1400m. He has a prior engagement that must be checked. Most have money chances and it could pay to get involved in TAB's Quartet bet.
