Not that many here that you would want to trust and it’s hard to ignore the claims of Keep To the Beat at least as a place chance having managed to hit the frame in her last two races with the most recent coming over C&D. It might pay to give NORM THE STORM a chance though as he switches to handicaps for the first time and with a pedigree that has plenty of stamina within it. Dropzone isn’t the quickest but is capable of plugging on over trips such as this while More Than Luck will appreciate the slight drop in grade and the return of his winning headgear combination.
- Norm The Storm
- Keep To The Beat
