In depth
Verdict
Dorchester, Type One, Esatto and Full Spate are all worthy of respect in a wide open finale, and the vote goes to Milton Bradley's Full Spate. The gelding has dropped to a favourable mark and was slightly unlucky when behind Pas De Surprise last time. He has been freshened up since his last run and will need things to fall right as he has to be produced with a late run, but should go well at a big price. Dorchester rates the main danger on his third behind Fruit of Glory but he ran as if the handicapper had caught up with him and he may be vulnerable to a better handicapped horse. Type One was a fair third behind Rudi's Pet last time out but he too looks to have plenty on at the weights. Esatto is also worthy of respect from a good draw. Of the remainder, Waterside is from a yard that is beginning to hit form, is at the right end of the handicap, and is worth noting in the market under conditions that suit, but we are happy to take a chance on Full Spate.
