Verdict

MUGATOO goes handicapping over a trip which should see improvement and off a mark which looks more than fair on balance, so he gets the nod over Navajo Star, who can be forgiven a modest effort on Fibresand last time. Pirate King won his maiden easily here last season, and has claims if excuses are made for a couple of subsequent defeats.
  1. Mugatoo
  2. Navajo Star
  3. Pirate King
