        Verdict

        It's hard to make a decent case for any of these in their current poor form but TOMMYS GEAL has been placed here on several occasions and gets a token vote to come good. Kylies Wild Card finished closer over track and trip when last seen at the track in November and Seamoor Secret has slipped a few pounds down the weights since making her handicap debut. Optimystic may do better now handicapping and could figure in a dire contest.
