Verdict
A wide open bumper rounds off the card and as usual the betting will be all important but the principals look to be Fibre Optics, Dreaming Away, Mini Saddler and the tentative vote goes to Fibre Optics. The selection is from a yard that has a good strike rate in these types of events and this gelding by Presenting will not have to be anything special to win on his debut. Dreaming Away rates the main danger . He is another well bred gelding By Un Desperado and is worth noting in the market. Mini Saddler is another that could go well as at least he has experience. He was a fair third on his debut behind Black Jack Ketchum and is sure to have come on for the run.The remainder make very little appeal on breeding and the market would have to speak in their favour for them to be backed and for the winner we return to Fibre Optics.
