PLAY SMARTER
DIFFIDENT SPIRIT was rated 81 this time last season and bumped into the well-handicapped Adelisa last time, so another step back in the right direction would make him tough to beat here. Opticality was also runner-up behind Adelisa on her last outing and that form line looks strong, with Sandy Paradise and Dewey Road also players.
