Verdict
A couple of these arrive in flying form having won here earlier in the week. Silverturnstogold beat Break The Silence when scoring over a mile and bids for a hat-trick but SUITCASE ‘N’ TAXI (NAP) looks to have strong claims of landing a four-timer having won a higher grade handicap over course and distance. Poeta Brasileiro debuts for a new yard having won over 6f here last month. He finished in front of Liamba when runner-up last time though has yet to race over this far while Dream World has a shout in first-time headgear if taking to the Fibresand.
