    Verdict

    Grand Caiman can continue his winning ways at the expense of Millville and Polish Power. The selection has been in the form of his life of late winning three times at the track this winter. Even though he is now seven pounds higher since his last run connections have been clever at pin pointing the right races and this once again looks well within his grasp. Millville has top weight to lump round as he runs off a mark of 105. He has performed well around this mark in the past but he is yet to win a race over a rating of 95 therefore looks within the grip of the handicapper. Polish Power is another that's runs off a career high mark. He ran well though when second to Grand Caimen and is in theory weight to reverse the form. Having said that Grand Caiman won with what looked like plenty in hand so we expect a similar result to last time.
