Verdict

A deep handicap but it's still hard to escape the claims of BROADHURST, a well-bred 3-y-o on the up for leading connections, and he could well be quite a bit better than his current mark. Dunum's record over 7f is an excellent one, while Rhoscolyn is back firing again and he still retains handicap scope.
