In depth
Verdict
Super Nomad is taken to get back on the winning trail he is a course and distance winner who will go on the ground and although he was slightly disappointing last time out when sent off favourite he should strip a lot fitter today. Stone Cold rates the main danger he was a fair fourth behind Donnybrook last time out but his best form is on faster ground. Kimdaloo has been in good form of late and will go on the ground, but he ran as if in the handicappers grip when second behind Pillaging Pict. Nephite could also go well but he found very little off the bridle last time out. The remainder need to improve on there latest form to score.
