        Verdict

        Foxy Forever, Stunned and Desert Strike finished in a heap behind Dynamo Walt over track and trip a fortnight ago. There should be little between that trio in this while a couple of the opposition are bidding for hat-tricks. Bertie Blu Boy is one but is upped a couple of grades after landing a double over 6f and FOXTROT KNIGHT is preferred. His recent double included a win over course and distance and Ruth Carr's charge should go close again in his current form. Free Zone has a string of duck eggs next to his name but has tumbled down the weights and is not easily dismissed dropped in class.
