Verdict
UNFORGIVING MINUTE is one of several veterans with a shout at the weights. He’s won twice since landing last year’s renewal, including back here in November, and arrives in better form than the likes of Salateen and Doc Sportello. The latter has yet to race over this far but Mindurownbusiness was a smart handicapper back in the day, though hasn’t raced since 2016 and debuts for new connections having been gelded. Portugueseprincess may prove best of the younger horses back on this surface.
