    Verdict

    A desperate turnout here with Pure Fun taken to upset the likely favourite as the TEAMtalk selection. Narrowly beaten in a similar contest to this here in April he warmed up for this with a spin at Hereford recently and should be spot on here. The likely favourite is Red Canyon, a winner of four races to date. His last win came off a mark of 91 and could struggle of 100 here. The final protagonist is Moon Colony who although is capable on his day can not really be trusted on this firm ground.
