Verdict

This is a tricky looking affair with North Star Oscar a leading player. However, he still has his stamina to prove after being beaten each time he has stepped up beyond 2m4f. The perennial bridesmaid Silent Encore found Mr Love too strong when a 15-length second over C&D at the start of the month. However, that rival has since scored again which upgrades that form. However, PETER'S PORTRAIT made an encouraging handicap debut over this trip when third over C&D at the start of the month. Given he has had just the four starts there should be plenty more to come from him and he can shed his maiden tag at the fifth attempt.
  1. Peter's Portrait
  2. North Star Oscar
  3. Silent Encore
