Verdict
Quick Decisson only won by a neck over 2m4f here 10 days ago and doesn't appeal as the type to follow up under a penalty. Civil Unrest and Chestnut Ben are course and distance winners but ENDEAVOR makes most appeal as Dianne Sayer's 11-year-old only found one too good over track and trip recently and was also second off this mark at Perth in September. Nefyn Bay seems better over further while Superior Command may need another race to put him straight.
