Verdict

Neil's Legacy is fancied to make it three wins from his last four starts; Amanda Carter and Kiss Chase head the list of dangers. The selection comes here in top form having recorded a facile victory over course and distance last month. Linda Perratt's mare has now scored three times over course and distance and as long as the ground doesn't become lightening quick, she can win again and prove that this new mark of 67 is not beyond her. Hawkit is a course and distance winner so goes on the shortlist, whilst Kiss Chase has responded well to the application of blinkers and with two easy wins under his belt, Jim Goldie's improving three-year-old can go well. Amanda Carter is at home on good or faster ground and must be feared over this, possibly her optimum trip. Bajan Parkes is consistent so should run his race, whilst King Of The Moors may need some help from the handicapper before he wins again. Another competitive affair then, and Neil's Legacy gets the vote.
