Verdict
Another tough handicap to call here for punters with many in form rivals in opposition including Legalis, Spindour and Aguila Loco and the tentative vote goes to Legalis. The gelding from the Kevin Ryan yard won well last time out when defeating Feast Of Romance, that form has since been franked and dewspite his penalty he is taken to win again. Spindour rates the main danger on his latest third behind Iced Diamond but he has yet to win over this trip and for that reason he is opposed. Aguila Loco is also worthy of respect he was third in a seller behind Sabana last time but thios looks more competitive. Captain Darling is another that could go well despite top weight he was a fair third behind Smith ¿N¿ Allen Oils last time but he may just need the run after a 52 day absence. Of the remainder Victory Vee is from a ayrd in form and is worth noting in the market but for the winner we return to Legalis.
