Verdict

Gatorade, Man Murphy and Burwood Breeze are three against the field in another tough race to call for punters and the vote goes to Gatorade. The selection won well last time out when defeating Winchester and although he is rising in the weights he could still be ahead of the handicapper and under conditions that suit he is taken to score. Man Murphy rates the main danger on his latest second behind Sound Of Cheers and as that was his first run in three months he may come on for the run. Burwood Breeze is another worthy of respect on his latest second behind Ossmoses but that was over a longer trip and the drop in distance is not sure to suit so he is passed over on this occasion. King Of The Arctic also won well last time out when defeating Stormy Beach but he hasps yet to win over a trip this far. Of the remainder Aleresd and Plumier are both on handy marks and are worth noting in the market but for the winner we return to Gatorade.
