Verdict

Another tight one to call as there's little to split between Precious Plum, Red Stripes, and POETA BRASILERIO; but the last named has got his act together well since joining his current yard and the fitting of a tongue tie, which brought forth a decent effort from the gelding last time, might just have been the missing ingredient to make him fire on all cylinder when racing away from his beloved Lingfield. Strong support in the betting for Snow Patch would also be dangerous to ignore; while Roundabout Magic and Arzaak complete what could have been an exhaustive shortlist for a very tight handicap.
  1. Poeta Brasileiro
  2. Precious Plum
  3. Snow Patch
