Verdict
Legendary Times has only had one run here and performed badly and, though she appears to have improved recently, she may find one or two of these having too much pace for her. Give Me Shelter showed little last season and was a 25/1 chance when making his seasonal debut over the C&D a month ago but did it nicely and there looked no fluke about the performance. TSAR PAUL has been running well all winter in this kind of grade but hasn't been able to get his head in front. Johnny Murtagh has been booked to ride him for the first time and that may just swing things his way. The lightly-raced maiden Moonbi Creek may prove best of the remainder.
