Verdict
Onceaponatime and Whitbarrow look worthy opponents, but the vote goes to PREMIER LAD on this return to the track. With the yard in good form, the selection looks capable of running a big race off this new mark of 66. He started off life in handicaps rated 71 and if we forget about his latest Kempton effort then there is plenty of promise to be gleaned from his form. Not My Choice looks well-handicapped and he needs close inspection in the market, as does Gracie's Gift who has a habit of running well when favourite. Sherjawy and Charles Parnell join Loose Caboose as course regulars with a consistent level of form, whilst Cape Of Storms should strip fitter for a recent run behind Ponting who is turned out again this afternoon. Calmdownmate is badly drawn but the return to this trip is probably in his favour, a comment that might not apply to the strong stayer Whitbarrow. Onceaponatime bumped into a well-handicapped rival last time out and is able to race off the same mark.
