Verdict

AUBA ME YANG proved a different proposition when ridden by this conditional to score on his handicap bow last time and is expected to improve further to defy a 10 lb rise in the weights. Fellow last-time-out winner Sami Bear is also much respected, whilst Sambezi is another who shouldn't be dismissed after his good second here last month.
