        Verdict

        A poor race which will not take a lot of winning. This however does represent a big drop in class for Hyde Park and hailing from a yard who does well in these type of events must be respected. Bee Health Boy goes well in weak contests and has to be given a chance here. Mamma's Boy does not seem to be the force of old and cannot be supported with any confidence while Moon Royale showed a bit of improvement in a bad race last time out and cannot be ruled out.
