In depth
Verdict
Busted Flush, Costa Del Sol and Baytown Shamrock, like a lot of these appear no better than moderate, and, while it wouldn't be total shock if one of them finally got their head in front, a chance is taken with the debutante Harleybrook, whose trainer James Given took a similar contest at the last meeting with Hi Darl. He is out of a mare that won twice over this trip and as he is a January foal, he should be quite forward, and wouldn't have to be anything out of the ordinary to make a winning debut. Baytown Shamrock has plenty of pace and isn't guaranteed to be suited by this trip, but one who could improve for it is Costa Del Sol, who finished behind the selections stablemate Hi Darl at the last meeting here. Busted Flush is another who could be well suited to this stiffer test, and as this is his first effort in this grade, is one to keep an eye on.
