Verdict

CASTLE GUEST can defy top weight to take this competitive handicap contest. The selection has placed on his last two starts and represents a stable with a 28% strike-rate (5/18) in recent weeks. Enzani was a winner in August and he can put a couple of below par efforts behind him to finish runner-up while third place can go the way of the veteran Vastonea who should appreciate the return to this distance.
  1. Castle Guest
  2. Enzani
  3. Vastonea
