In depth
Verdict
A wide open affair here for punters with many in with chances on there best form. My Sharp Grey, Tap and Anyhow are sure to have there supporters but we will take a chance on Don Fayruz. The gelding from the Amanda Bowlby yard will love the ground and runs his best races fresh and he should go well at a big price. My Sharp Grey rates the main danger he finished sixth in a handicap behind Loch Laird last time and this represents a drop in grade. Tap is another taking a drop in class and although he was disappointment on the AW last time out he is one to watch in the market as he is from a very shrewd yard. Of the remainder Anyhow is from a yard that is beginning to hit top from and he is another that could go well in an open affair.
