Verdict

The second division of the 1m4f handicap and supporters of Nearly There will be looking for positive form signals from the first division where he finished 3rd to a few that run in that section last time out. Good Man will be one of the fresher horses in this but despite his love for this track he does have to prove he can win a race. Zealous is one to note back on this surface and eased in grade while Thecornishbarron needs monitoring in the betting. PARA MIO is the pick of these though having shaped well on his last two starts without looking to have had too much luck in-running. This trip will suit and the handicapper has done him a favour leaving him on the same mark.
  1. Para Mio
  2. Good Man
  3. Nearly There
