Verdict

ONESTEPATATIME has clearly improved since finishing third to Sir Apollo over C&D in November, winning back-to-back handicaps here in January, and she is taken to complete the hat-trick. Sir Apollo won by a street when adding to his tally here recently but he has much more on his plate this time. Bigger threats may be posed by fellow last-time-out winners Court At Slip and Who's In The Box, with the former feared most on the back of a ready success at Newcastle.
