Verdict

The progressive CAPELAND took time to warm to the task over fences but the penny has now dropped and he should make a bold bid to land his three-timer. Otter Moon represents good value to make the frame, while Ballywood and Amoola Gold are unexposed as chasers and are also worth considering as alternatives.
