Verdict

Katmai River beat little when scoring over C&D last week and this is tougher with a penalty to carry. HEREFORD BOY's recent placed efforts, including his third over a mile here last time, looks better form and the gets the nod dropping back in trip. Goal won on the Polytrack last week but has done all his winning so far off lower marks while Highland Harvest is struggling for form at present but would get involved if rediscovering his best.
