In depth
Verdict
Belmount won off a higher mark at Warwick around this time last year and has plenty in his favour today. Perfect Timing has never won off a mark this high but was placed at the track in July. Amilliontimes has won around here but he’s been struggling for form for a while, a remark that could also be applied to Ganbei. BORIC is a thorough stayer but retuns to action on a decent mark and handles all types of going. There are enough front-runners in this to suggest he’ll get a strong pace.
