Verdict

A very competitive race with which to open the card and the suggestion is ONE WORD MORE. Tim Easterby keeps producing winners in these sort of contests at the track and although the draw could have been a bit more kind to him, the gelding goes on the ground and looked like he was returning to form last time. Chiefofchiefs is interesting now stepping up in class, but should give a good account and Weekend Offender looks like he still has improvement in him. Twin Appeal, General Macarthur and Kings Gift are others considered, while Abe Lincoln, First Selection and Firnas are others with claims in a contest that will take a bit of winning.
