Verdict

A tough start for punters, with plenty of questions to be answered. It could be safest to stick with the form horse in OH'HEREWEGO. He'd won three from four prior to unseating early at Galway and isn't certain to have reached a ceiling just yet. There are all sorts of dangers lurking. Stacks Mountain and Serious Ego are both low-mileage and coming in off pleasing efforts with improvement likely. Mystic Embarr and William Tyndale both ran well but have absences to overcome now while Epsilon Indi, Market's Field and Lake Takapuna join former C&D scorer Seskinane in commanding respect in a wide open heat.
  1. Oh'herewego
  2. Serious Ego
  3. Mystic Embarr
