In depth
Verdict
Get It On's profile is a right rollercoaster which makes it hard to support him although he's capable at best, whilst Spanish Treasure has shown little for some time now. Man Of Steel represents a yard sure to have a good summer if past seasons are anything to go by and a recent run should have eliminated any rustiness as he was prominent until fading up the home straight. Better is expected but COMMITMENT is preferred. The former Cumani inmate has taken to hurdles well enough and was always going to land the spoils here last time on good ground. Assured softer conditions shouldn't inconvenience as he has a heavy ground success on his CV for Luca Cumani in 2012. He rates an improver and can follow up. Toowoomba is lightly-raced but retains scope for progress for a top yard and looks the danger whilst Fuzzy Logic is a possible but needs to improve on recent efforts.
