Verdict

A wide-open handicap so at the likely odds it could be worth siding with PRESENT DESTINY who has dropped to a handy mark and is fancied to capitalise for his new handler on his return from a wind op. Hat-trick seeking Andapa rates the obvious threat despite taking a big rise in the weights, with in-form Ranco likely to be on the premises too in his bid for a breakthrough win in this sphere.
