TURF TIME looks to have strong claims on this weak sprint handicap so Jeremy Glover's charge has the vote with Miss Polly Plum the danger and Moonlight Serenade looks dangerous off a new low weight. After just finding one too good last time out and finishing ahead of a subsequent winner the selection is the only one coming into this race in any sort of form. That run was his third silver medal performance in four starts so with a pound removed from his back he is a confident selection. Miss Polly Plum is the least exposed of the leading players and ran well on her handicap bow on her last outing. She's had three pounds removed from her mark after that start so wouldn't have to improve much to go a couple better this time around. Moonlight Serenade is down to a career low rating and having found a place when three pounds worse off in December must be given a chance in this line-up and Yeah may be seen in a better light now also at his lightest weight in these ranks. This is a race that won't take much winning and the form tells us that Turf Time is the one that will take it.
