Verdict

CLIFFTOP HEAVEN has been the subject of an interesting trainer change and could prove the answer having dropped to a winning mark, with confidence increased should the betting vibes be strong. Recent novice winner Cerulean could have more to come in handicaps for his in-form yard and looks the main threat. Melakaz also makes the shortlist.
