Verdict
It took Taravara 19 attempts to open his account though finally did so when scoring over track and trip. But DAAFY has won four times at this venue already and having missed out by only a neck back here last time, Derek Shaw’s charge gets the vote. Chief's Will finished behind the selection that day but They Don't Know went close at Lingfield recently while Star Shield, Little Jo and Cloch Nua have all been in the mix of late.
