Verdict

There are a couple worth watching in the market in this intriguing event down at the foot of the handicap in Cresendo and Buthelezi. The former comes from a shrewd yard and they may well have rejuvenated this one while the latter has dropped to a very attractive mark based on his old form and his pedigree gives hope that he will act on this surface. The safer option though is MISTER SHOWMAN who is probably better than he showed last time and has already proved that he can act on this surface winning here on his debut for this yard. Lean On Pete may well be able to gain another place while Maraakib if he handles the surface could prove dangerous although his finishing effort does leave something to be desired on many occasions.
  1. Mister Showman
  2. Buthelezi
  3. Cresendo
