Verdict

Several to consider in this competitive handicap and CURRENT OPTION gets the nod. While his recent form figures are not as appealing as those possessed by some of these, the 8-y-o is now 2 lb below the mark off which he hit the target at Fairyhouse during the summer and this track should suit him. Goldrush Kid and Dragon of Malta are next on the list (in order of preference), while Mercurial is in with a shout, along with Blue Soul and unexposed maiden winner Una Matata also needs a second look.
