Verdict

Those with chase experience don't look particularly progressive so it may pay to take a chance on TOPGUN SIMMY. A low-mileage, progressive winner over hurdles, it's interesting connections quickly opt for a switch to this code and he gets the nod before the benefit of market clues. Stuzzikini and Chinx of Light are others to consider in a tricky affair.
