Verdict
A very moderate affair which can be taken by top weight Palawan. Effective a five, six and seven furlongs, he is a course and distance winner, from a yard who's horses are going well enough. If he is straight on this reappearance then he is taken to score. Byo is not well in with the selection at these weights, but has shown enough to suggest that if he is fit to give his running he can chase home Palawan, while first time blinkers should also help Spinetail Rufus and he can also claim a place.
