Verdict

Some progressive three-year-olds in opposition, but most have given the handicapper a chance to re-frame their ratings, whereas EVENING SUN looks very well weighted having slammed one who went on to be placed in Listed company on his final qualifying run, and his opening mark doesn't reflect that collateral form upgrade. Tsar and Johan were both taking handicap winners last time, and both should improve further, to help offset their respective rise in the ratings.
  1. Evening Sun
  2. Tsar
  3. Johan
