        Verdict

        Another wide open handicap for punters to fathom but the main protagonists look to be Four Jays, Ground Zero and African Spur and we will take a chance on Ground Zero. The gelding from the bang in form Tim Easterby yard has been in good form of late and a reproduction of his latest third off this mark behind Inter Vision would make him hard to beat. Four Jays rates the main danger he was a good third behind Meelup last time e out and he will not be far away despite top weight. African Spur would be worthy of respect on his best for but that has come over five and six furlongs and he is not sure to see out this trip. Of the remainder Pop Up Again and Phantom Flame are from shrewd yards and are worth noting in the market but we are happy to side with Ground Zero.
