STRAHLEMANN (6) finished tenth two runs back then did well last start but found one better over 2350m at Krefeld, beaten only 1.3 lengths. Has the class to find the winners' list. CORIOLAN (1) has been racing well without winning. Last start finished third, beaten 7 lengths, over 2400m at Hannover. Has a fair record at this trip with a win and two minor placings so he is expected to measure up. ATYLLUS (5) finished third last start at the first run back from a spell over 2950m at Krefeld, beaten 13 lengths. Placed to advantage so expect a big run. TABULARASA (2) produced a good run two starts back to finish third but was below par last time when out of the placings at Dusseldorf over 2200m. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race.
