In depth

Verdict

A desperate seller gets proceedings underway but something has to win and the principals look to be College City, Macreater and Princess of Aeneas and the narrow vote is given to College City. The selection was a fair second behind Over To Joe last time out, that form looks rock solid in the context of this race and under similar conditions he looks the one to be on. Macreater rates the main danger on his latest second behind Nedwood Spirit but that form has since been let down and he is taken on with this in mind. Princess of Aeneas is game and consistent and is sure to run her race but she is beginning to look trip-less. Of the remainder Sea Cove would be a danger to all if fit after a 927 day absence while Bayside is dropping in grade and is another to note in the market but for the winner we return to College City who looks sure to run his race.
