Verdict
Dorneys Well, The Hairy Lemon and Bonny Grey are three against the field in another minefield for punters and the vote is given to Dorneys Well. The selection won well last time out when beating Kings Rock and although he has a penalty for that win he won with a little in hand and he is taken to defy the handicapper under conditions suit. The Hairy Lemon rates the main danger on his best form but he just gave the impression the handicapper had caught up with him last time and for that reason he is opposed. Bonny Grey Is another worthy of respect on his latest second behind Jockser but he has had plenty of chances off a similar mark and for that reason he is opposed. Misbehaviour is game and consistent and is sure to run her race but is another that looks weighted up to her best. Of the remainder Mister Mustard has dropped to a handy mark and should be monitored in the market but for the winner we return to Dorneys Well.
