Verdict

Only a weak contest and despite the question marks over the principals it’s fairly hard to look beyond them in what is a fairly unappealing betting contest. SUPER BOWL has to be forgiven a poor run last time out but with a tongue tie on for the first time he may well be able to the better of the disappointing Tree Of Knowledge who has yet to really convince over obstacles. The same could be said of Skeaping who keeps finding ways of getting beaten although this is a weak contest with only Storm Rising looking to hold much scope to progress further.
