Verdict

Probably not quite as competitive as one would expect for a Class 2 AW handicap, so it could pay to take a chance on the unproven stamina reserves of the unexposed 3yo GLENDEVON. He acquitted himself with credit (despite carrying his head a fraction high) when chasing home Archetype in a Conditions Stakes event over C&D last month, and this is theoretically an easier option. Others to consider include the returned to synthetics Maratha and the newly hooded Ventura Knight.
  1. Glendevon
