Verdict
Feel The Pride gets the confident vote here with Mumaris and Six Pack rating the main dangers. The selection won in facile fashion last time out when beating Odagh Odyssey and although he has risen in the weights for that win he still looks ahead of the handicapper and under conditions that suit he will be hard to beat.Mumaris rates the main danger as he also won well last time out when beating Caribbean Cove but this looks more competitive and he will need to improve again to win off this mark. Six Pack is another worth of respect on his latest second behind Tiger Frog but he is becoming hard to win with. Star Jack has been in good form in points of late and returns to handicapping on a fair mark so he should be monitored in the market. Of the remainder Bob's Buster has the ability to go close but his best form of late has come on a softer surface and for the winner we return to Feel The Pride.
