        Verdict

        A wide open handicap here and many would have chances on their best form but the principals look to be Downtherefordancin, Borora, Lightning Star and the tentative vote goes to Borora. The selection won well last time out when defeating Lik Wood Power and although he has a penalty for that win he won in the style an improver and is taken to win again under conditions that suit. Downtherefordancin rates the main danger he won well last time when defeating Port Moreno but that was in a seller and this looks much tougher so he is overlooked on this occasion. Lightning Star is another that could go well but he just gave the impression the handicapper had caught up with him when fourth behind Mounts Bay last time and although he is better off with that rival here he will need to improve to gain his revenge. Of the remainder Trink Hill is from a shrewd yard and is worth noting in the market but for the winner we return to Borora.
