Verdict

TALKING POINT is creeping closer in handicaps and was beaten only a head over course and distance last time. She can go one better in a weak contest. Acquisitor has been thereabouts over shorter trips and can figure if lasting home while Merry Secret may improve on his second outing for Mick Appleby’s yard. He Can Dance, Royal Heart and Isla Vista are all open to improvement now handicapping for the first time.
