Verdict

GIOVINCO possibly found the Grade 1 Kauto Star on Boxing Day coming too soon after a big effort at Sandown earlier in the month so, on the back of a short break and down markedly in grade, this looks a good opportunity for him to get his chasing career back on track and make it 2-2 in handicaps. Cruz Control is the danger.
