Verdict

It may be wisest to concentrate on those near the top of the handicap, with top-weight Alans Pride going well lately and capable of holding his form despite another nudge up in the ratings. However EADAOINS PET has also been running some good races and would not be winning out of turn. She's been on the premises in four runs this season and perhaps the first-time cheekpieces will provide the extra spark needed to record a win. Further down the line, S P B Lucky remains a maiden but has been threating and represents a yard in full flow at the moment while chances can also be given to Mr Michael and Voyageofdiscovery.
  1. Eadaoins Pet
  2. Alans Pride
  3. S P B Lucky
