Verdict

A competitive handicap rounds of the card and many would have chances on their best form but the principals look to be Richtee,Top Style and Bartra Rock and the narrow vote is given to Top Style. The selection won well last time out when beating Caymans Gift and although he has a penalty for that win he won with plenty in hand and he is taken to defy the handicapper under conditions that suit. Richtee rates the main danger as he also won well last time out when beating Kindling but he was all out on that occasion and his penalty may just find him out. Bartra Rock is another with place claims on his latest second behind Next Flight but he just gave the impression he barley stayed this trip on that occasion and for that reason he looks worth taking on. Of the remainder Millennium Hall and High Country look weighted up to their best and for the winner we return to Top Style.
