Verdict
St Ignatius has been third off this mark twice recently and should be thereabouts again. Mullins Way ran his best race for a long time at Newcastle last month while Hawaiian Freeze won over course and distance two runs ago, though looks held by St Ignatius on later Brighton form. TARO TYWOD is probably on a decent mark at present and has been keeping better company of late. She's probably worth risking in a modest heat as Rapid Water is inconsistent and better over shorter distances and Edgeworth lost his way last year.
