In depth
Verdict
An ordinary race where Vizulize is given marginal preference over old rival Esperance and the in-form Margery Daw, who are just two of a handful of the rest that hold chances in this company. Another being Glendale, who created the impression that his turn is not too far away when finishing fourth over course and distance on his latest start. However, like Must Be Magic and a few of the rest, he is running out of chances and the goodwill tab is revoked today. Trickstep and Vittorioso are a couple of others that are worth monitoring for signs of each-way support and the market will tell us which carries the main hopes of the stable. Nevertheless, we prefer the claims of Vizulise, who can help to set his own pace today and it will be no shock if he catches them all sleeping if allowed a soft lead from the off.
