Verdict
HUMAN NATURE is penalised for winning over 6f at Kempton last week. But that’s negated by Marco Ghiani’s 5lb allowance and another bold bid is expected given he scored over course and distance last term. Royal Dynasty also won over track and trip in March with Mount Wellington in close attendance but was beaten off today’s higher mark last time while both Javelin and Atletico are regularly thereabouts at this level without winning. Martineo is back on a winning mark and preferred to the returning Lothario.
