Verdict

Krugerrand has yet to live up to his billing. A good looking colt he is more than capable if the mood takes him, but he has flattered to deceive on more than one occasion. Passing Glance is a tough cookie, but it remains to be seen whether he is as effective over this shorter trip, having done the most of his racing over eight furlongs plus. Lady Zonda didn't do much wrong behind Oakley Rambo last time and she may appreciate this shorter trip, but this looks set to go to the lightly raced Shersha, who is still open to improvement. She should be suited by this drop in trip as she tends to be a bit keen.
