Verdict

SVINDAL is given the vote to get his head in front after a string of seconds while both Nicky Nutjob and Helpmeronda are both worthy of mention. The selection has become a little frustrating after finishing second on no less that five different occasions. To be fair to him though he has only ever been a beaten favourite on one of those races and has been unlucky to have come across a well treated horse in each case. He looks to have a fair chance of breaking his maiden tag here and is the one horse in the race to stay on the right side of. Nicky Nutjob ran a personal best when finishing second to Canmoss at Great Leighs last month. He is only lightly raced and is still on the up grade so any market moves should be noted. Helpmeronda is another that still looks on the up grade and ran a decent race at a big price last time out. She looks well enough treated so any moves in the marked should be monitored. However for the winner we return to Svindal.
