Verdict

Southfield Vic was thriving when last spotted in May completing a four-timer. He boasts a tremendous record under Natalie Parker and is entitled to maximum respect, but his record fresh in recent times isn't terribly strong. MR MERCURIAL has no concerns fresh and has also had a recent tune-up in a point-to-point. He has been prolific in this sphere and looks a better proposition now with his main market rival odds-on early door. Band Of Blood may be best of the rest.
