Verdict

Another wide open contest rounds off proceedings but the main protagonists look to be Tap, Air Of Esteem and Noble Locks and we will take a chance on Tap. The six year old is in top form goes well at the track and with conditions in his favour he will be hard to beat. Air Of Esteem rates the main danger he was a good second behind Answered Promise last time out and a reproduction of that effort would see him go close of what looks a handy mark. Noble Locks is also worthy of consideration on his best for but he ran as if in the handicappers grip when fourth behind Risk Free last time out. Haunt The Zoo won well last time out when defeating Jessinca last time out but he will find this harder under his penalty. Of the remainder Prince Of Gold is from a shrewd yard and is worth noting in the market but we are happy to side with the bang in form Tap.
