Verdict
JUSTINEO has won four races and only just failed to make it five when making most in a Listed contest over 6f at Salisbury. This should prove ideal and he can see off the challenge of Dungannon. Andrew Balding's charge has a tremendous strike-rate of 10-44 but he prefers a bit of cut in the ground and he's unlikely to get that here. Barracuda Boy completed a double last autumn and though unable to match that sort of form this term he's been competing at a higher level. Dutch Masterpiece completed a hat-trick in the summer of 2013 and has only recently returned to action. He's won over the track and trip and is no forlorn hope in a tricky little contest.
