Verdict
A modest maiden that can go to Man Crazy with Azolla and Old Malt expected to be too good for Veverka to fill the places. However, Man Crazy, who has paid her way in place money already this season, acts well on these idiosyncratic courses and has looked like a winner waiting to happen for some time now. The only note of caution is that she does have a tendency to find little at the business end, but this is a weak race and she may just be able to amass enough of a lead to hold on from Azolla when they cross the line.
