Verdict

Green Day Packer gets the confident vote here with Longdale and Terenzium rating the main dangers. The selection was a good second behind the well-handicapped Painted Sky last time out again, has conditions to suit and with the useful Michael Murphy taking off a handy 7lbs, he looks a value bet in an open affair. Longdale rates the main danger on his latest third behind Little Bob but that form has since been let down and he is taken on with this in mind. Terenzium was a fair fourth behind All For The Cause last time but he has already indicated he would be suited by a longer trip and he is opposed with this in mind. Merryvale Man may need the run after a 718-day break, while Solitary Palm's best form is on a softer surface and with this in mind Green Day Packer is our idea of the winner.
