        Verdict

        Bella Chica has been running well this season in competitive sprint handicaps and the TEAMtalk selection is presented with a good opportunity to find the winner's enclosure in an uncompetitive race. Loyal Tycoon represents the 'Sprint King' David Nicholls and has been doing well recently since dropped down in class. He has to be feared in a race of this nature but was found out when stepped up in class last time out and may just find the selection too good. Sarraaf has been running in better races than this and is the only other obvious danger, however he remains inconsistent and cannot be backed with too much confidence.
