Verdict

Speed Dial Harry is given the confident vote and he should have too much class for his rivals here with Hiamovi and Tiffin Deano rated as the main dangers. The selection will have conditions to suit and he is eased in grade after being well beaten in a competitive handicap last time. However, this race is much easier and he is taken to score. Hiamovi rates the main danger but he was a little disappointing last time, and although he is another that is eased in grade he is not proven on a soft surface and he may be best watched on this occasion. Tiffin Deano will have no problems with the ground but the drop in trip is not sure to suit him as he ran well over 7f last time and he may find a couple too good. The other pair will have to improve to get competitive and for the winner we return to Speed Dial Harry.
