Verdict

TROLL PENINSULA looks ahead of the handicapper after a deeply-impressive comeback win at Kempton under Andrea Atzeni and he can land this big pot on just his fourth start. Danyah made a pleasing return in the Lincoln and a mighty run could be forthcoming. Matthew Flinders and Nugget are a couple of other promising 4-y-os to note.

  1. TROLL PENINSULA (USA)
  2. DANYAH (IRE)
