In depth

Verdict

Scarletti has ran well on all his runs over hurdles notably when second behind Puntal beaten 18 lengths, there is nothing of that caliber in this contest and he should win easily. Wainak has shown a modicum of ability but will need to improve on all known form to score but he may run into a place. Desperate Measures only showed a modicum of ability on the flat and he may do better over hurdles once he is handicapped over a longer trip. The remainder may improve for the experience.
