Verdict

Last year's winner VAN GERWEN looked a little unlucky last time out and he's expected to run well in a bid to defend last year's success. Musharrif is in fine form in recent weeks and while creeping up the handicap without winning, he can't be ruled out. Tylery Wonder is still on a decent mark if he can put his best foot forward.
