Verdict
UNIT SIXTYFOUR looks to have a good opportunity of following his Warwick success with another victory. He won easily in a first-time tongue-tie and can defy a hike in the weights given today’s moderate opposition. Of those, Master Malcolm looks the biggest danger having won this off a lower mark last year while Line Of Descent is another who improved for the application of a tongue-tie when second at Catterick. Darebin drops down in class and may finish closer as a consequence.
