Verdict

A chance is taken on IN FIRST PLACE. Richard Fahey's gelding has been running solid races in the main so far this year but has really looked like a step up to an intermediate trip could be the making of him. He gets that step up in trip today off what should prove to be a workable handicap mark, with ground he'll like to assist further. He can get the better of Visitant, who brings strong recent form to the table having already benefited from a step up in trip, while potential improver Sound Bar is another to consider.
