Verdict

This race looks like it will be between the top two in the market and preference is for the top weight, HEATH CHARNOCK. The four-year-old has held his mark well since victory on debut over C&D and looks to be being given a chance by the handicapper of his current rating to run yet another bold race. Wasntexpectingthat is expected to be the main rival given his rapid progression over C&D but faces his sternest test to date, while the likes of Storm Over and Double Up look to be coming back into form for their new yards respectively but need to find more on ratings.
