Verdict
Market moves are usually very informative in these types of races but of those with experience Kitski gets the nod over Serpentine Rock and Lord Rodney. Kitski ran Lockstockandbarrel very close at this track recently giving the winner plenty of weight. The pair pulled clear that day and although still having to give weight to most of these he should still prove too strong for his rivals. Lord Rodney produced a decent effort on his debut behind a hotpot of Len Lungo's and can progress. However, unless the market provides any strong clues, we will put forward Kitski to gain a deserved win.
