Verdict

TRY AGAIN continues to thrive, bringing up a C&D hat-trick in fine style last week. That was another career-best effort and, with a penalty to carry, more might be required again but the suspicion is that it will be forthcoming. War Room hadn't much to spare when scoring over C&D last time out and so his ratings hike makes him more vulnerable than the selection but Cardigan Street is one worth noting. He was a close third on handicap bow over 7f recently and should open his account in the near future. Khabaray, The Lords Walk, Settle For Red and Ask Katie are others that merit closer examination for the minor honours.
