Verdict

A low grade handicap in which many of those in the line up have stamina doubts. The list of potential winners is a relatively short one, but C&D specialist Master Of Heaven is close to his last winning mark, and knocking at the door of late would've been the selection with a better draw. Both Tarseekh and McDelta have stronger claims than many based upon their recent AW efforts, but look short of a change of gears, so the vote goes to NEVER FOLDING. Still a maiden, she has reasonable form off higher marks than today's and appeared in need of a step up in trip when 1L second to Mach One over 1m here earlier in the month.
  1. Never Folding
  2. Mcdelta
  3. Master Of Heaven
