Verdict
A tight little handicap were none of the sextet can confidently be ruled out, but Nevada Desert has indicated that he is in good form at present and he is taken to confirm recent form with Flighty Fellow, with Dubai Dreams and You never No rated as big dangers. The selection is on a handy mark at present and is one to keep on the right side of for the time being; whatever happens today. Dubai Dreams found things happening a little too quickly for him in a better race than this last time, but has to be considered at back at this level. However, his wins to runs ratio is modest and the likelihood is that he will find at least one too good again today. You Never No has something to prove back at this trip but will be interesting if supported.
