Verdict
The handicapper has decided to drop SMOOCH down the weights means and John Quinn's filly may be able to make that count. Captain Dandy is yet to win on Turf though that hasn't stopped the market championing him in the past. Glory Hallelujah has been found wanting over 5f but the course and distance winner cannot be dismissed from the equation. Hot Scoop is no stranger to prevailing in plating events and is respected. Any market confidence behind Howyadoin would be significant given he’s placed off higher marks over course and distance in the past.
