Verdict
The Evan Williams-trained In The Frame is in the form of his life and he can land a third successive victory in this afternoon's company; possibly at the main expense of Mumaris and Fiori. The last named has been a good money spinner for his connections over the years and has a solid win and place record. However, he may need a bit more cut in the ground these days and will do well to hold off a more progressive type. Mumaris is another that has paid his way and can never confidently be ruled out at this level. However, his yard have been struggling for winners of late and he needs to pull something out of the hat here. Which brings us back to In The Frame for the selection. The six-year-old has really found his racing shoes this term and is obviously happier on a faster ground. A mark of 101 looks very lenient in comparison to his hurdles form and In The Frame looks worth keeping on the right side for the time being.
