Verdict

There should be little between Exeat and Ho Leng, who finished 1st and 3rd here last week in a similar event. Without a win since his juvenile days, Certain Justice is taken to put matters right. This is his easiest task for a while and he should prove too good for his rivals on these terms. The biggest threat may come from Pie High, who was only just touched off at Yarmouth last week. Mark Johnston's filly, the winner of a couple of events on the All-Weather, has yet to strike on turf, but it can only be a matter of time.
