Verdict

THUNDER LEGEND was well on top of a subsequent winner at Hamilton in August and looks to have been handed a very fair opening mark, so he makes plenty of appeal, especially with the prospect of more to come for his new yard. Saga and Tylos are others to view positively in an interesting 3-y-o handicap.
