Verdict

It looks likely that there are only a few to concentrate on here in this low-grade handicap with trainer Jim Goldie holding a strong hand and looking to have a fair chance of landing this with either Eternalist or STAR CRACKER with the latter just getting the nod. He ran well here in a race that looked a strong one for the grade and is still well below his last winning mark. Lady Joanna Vassa is very quick but might just fail to last home here as she has on her last two runs with a place the best she can hope for again. Catwilldo and Pillar are a couple of others to note who have a chance in this lowly grade.
