Verdict

With Curious Times likely to be popular in the market and a big danger to follow up on his shock win at Down Royal last time out it may be worth siding with the Gavin Cromwell-trained MING DYNASTY who has been running well in defeat since handicap debut in December. Jockey Ger Fox finished second of 16 in that race and returns to plate here with the seven-year-old more than capable of seeing off the attentions of Dark Decade and Let The Heirs Walk.
