Verdict

Darasim, Freeline Fantasy and Star Fever are three against the field in this competitive opener and the tentative vote is given toDarasim. The selection was a fair sort on the flat is sure to have been schooled for this his hurdling debut, he should be closely monitored in the market. Freeline Fantasy rates the main danger as he was a fair sort between the flags and he has definite place claims but his over all form leaves him with plenty to find with the selection. Iris Wolf is another with place claims on his best form but he has given the impression in the past that he would be suited by a longer trip and he has been let down by his jumping of late and for that reason he is passed over on this occasion. Of the remainder Star Fever showed improved form last time out and if he improved again he would be another with place claims but in a race where the market will be very informitave for the winner we return to Darasim who need only put in a clear to score.
