Verdict
Awake, Repeat and Rafters Music look the three to concentrate on in this seller and the vote is given to Awake. The selection is well weighted on his best form and although he was slightly disappointing behind Golden Dixie last time out he drops to the bottom grade here and from what looks a good draw he will be hard to beat. Repeat rates the main danger on his latest third in this grade behind Noul and if the selection is on a going day he should go well but he still looks to have a little to find. Rafters Music looks sure to have the race run to suit and now he drops to his optimum trip so he will not be far away. Foxies Future is another worthy of respect on his latest second behind Aguila Loco but consistency is not his strong point and for that reason he is overlooked. Of the remainder Quincannon is from a yard in form and should be noted in the market but in a race where stakes should be kept to a minimum for the winner we return to Awake.
