Verdict
Jumping has been a problem for ELLIOT on his last couple of starts but should he post a clear round he could potentially be well handicapped. Strongly supported on his penultimate where he travelled strongly before falling, he departed too early last time to throw any form of evaluation on his effort. Guns Of Love is a maiden after 17 starts but on occasions has indicated some promise. Strategic Plan hails from a yard that have not gathered form this season but market support would be noteworthy while Debord and Won More Night are two others of note but Elliot is given the vote.
