Verdict

BROOME is unbeaten in three this year and, having found plenty to land a Group 2 here earlier in the month, he's fancied to gain his first success at the top level. Stablemates Tiger Moth and Serpentine have the scope to do better as 4yos, so they're also well respected for all the selection has a fitness edge over them.
