Verdict

Confidentiality has made hay since joining Michael Wigham but Apache Dawn can put paid to her winning run; of the remainder, Bertie Southstreet appeals most. The selection was having his first run since August and his first for Gary Moore when only going down by a neck to Atlantic Story in the middle leg of that one's hat-trick. He's gone up 4lbs in the weights for his troubles but the form is rock solid and there should be more to come. Confidentiality has proved to be a real money spinner for her shrewd yard and returns to action here after a well earned break. The lack of a run is no concern with her yard going well but she's gone up another 6lbs for her latest win and, although, her improvement has shown no signs of abating she's now 34lbs higher than when first successful and could no longer be described as well handicapped. Bertie Southstreet has the ability to win a race of this nature but is finding it difficult to get his head in front and could do so again today with Apache Dawn likely to take all the beating.
