Verdict
The veteran sprinter STEELRIVER is clear of the remaining pair at the weights. He was still good enough to land a hat-trick here last summer and should have the measure of Onebaba. The latter completed a double at Southwell with his latest success and scored over track and trip at the start of the year so has the edge on these terms over recent course third Quarry Beach.
