Verdict

There was more promise from COCHISE on his qualifying run here last time and, based on Flat form, a mark of 85 might vastly underestimate him, so a chance is taken on him to make a successful switch to handicaps. Top Man seems revitalised of late, so he's an obvious danger, while Clear The Runway is another notable handicap debutant.

  1. COCHISE
