Verdict

Having been given a serious chance by the handicapper, it would be no surprise were TAKE YOUR TIME to stage a revival equipped with first-time blinkers. Stablemate Jet of Magic looks a big threat judged on his solid effort in a Grade 3 Sandown handicap in February but whether he has much in hand of his current mark remains to be seen. Consequently, the selection may have most to fear from Copper Coin, who is interesting back from a break (goes well fresh), and the hat-trick seeking Hititi.
