Verdict

The unexposed CONNECTIVE is the most intriguing contender on show and, as he comes into this following a near miss over C&D, he has plenty going for him now he tries a handicap for the first time. Jen's Boy appreciated the test last time out and is strong contender in this company; as is Minella Mojo, who also showed improved form in his latest start and merits a betting check despite his burden of top weight. Get An Oscar stays well and can benefit if the main contenders have an off-day for any reason.
  1. Connective
  2. Jen's Boy
  3. Minella Mojo
