Verdict
This is in direct contrast to the opener and is a race full of pitfalls for punting purposes. Hi Darl is likely to have plenty of support after just failing to make the frame in a claimer at Wolverhampton last time out. And he will not have to better that by much to take such a weak affair as this. However, he does have an awkward head carriage and does not look to be the most straightforward of characters. He is also closely matched with Costa Del Sol on Wolverhampton form and, at the forecast odds, Dean Ivory¿s charge makes slightly more appeal. The General Monash gelding improved for the step up to this trip last time out and can make that experience count today. Any each way support for Emperor Cat will depend on how he takes to stalls entry this time, whilst Pardon Moi would not have to find a great deal to make the frame.
