Verdict

GO STEADY looks potentially thrown in based on chasing form and he's likely to be tuned up on reappearance, so he gets the marginal vote in a wide-open handicap. Game Socks should put up another solid showing, while Sambezi remains with a better showing in him in this discipline, so he's another one to consider.
