        In depth

        Verdict

        Presto Shinko, Eistedford and Pic Up Sticks are thr ee against the field in another wide open affair and the vote is given to the last named. The selection is well weighted on his very best form has conditions to suit and with the booking of Kevin Darl;ey catching the eye he is taken to score. Eistedford rates the main danger as he was very progressive last year winning his last three races however he looks high enough in the weights now and may just need this his first run of the season so he is passed over on this occasion. Presto Shenko is another that could go well as he won well on his debut this season when beating Who's Winning but he will do well to win from out of the handicap here. Of the remainder High Reach is from a shrewd yard and should be noted in the market but for the winner we return to Pic Up Sticks.
