Verdict
YUNGABURRA wasn't beaten far when fifth over C&D last week and the handicapper has given him a chance by dropping him 5lbs. He gets the token vote ahead of Dingaan, who finished runner-up over 6f at Kempton recently. A case can be made for both Titan Diamond and Lightning Spirit dropping down a grade and the inconsistent Cannon Bolt would figure on a going day. Avon Light won over a shorter trip in soft ground at Brighton last month but is hard to fancy under today's different conditions.
