      Verdict

      An interesting little contest and Our Three Sons is sure to give this a good go from the front although his mark is now becoming restrictive his game attitude should keep should keep him in this. However both NOVIS ADVENTUS and Altaayil are making their handicap debuts here and both have hinted that they are capable of better in this sphere the former particularly so. Lake Chapala has to prove her can improve again off a higher mark and he's not always looked the most straightforward despite his good recent form.
