      Verdict

      Without A Fight edges it on official ratings but has yet to fully convince he stays this trip well and Onesmoothoperator has never raced on Turf. The last three runs of Euchen Glen, all over notably different trips, have been low-key and the jury remains out on John Leeper as he's only made the frame once in his last five starts. MANDOOB, however, is one without any major issues and is respected, especially having only a sixth start in public. A consistent performer, he ran well behind Al Aasy last time and is just preferred to Kemari. The Appleby gelding stays this trip well and should give a good account with fitness not expected to be an issue after 134 days off.
