Verdict
BIG TIME MAYBE wears a visor for the first time here and the speedily-bred gelding can register his first success on his handicap debut here. The selection is a half-brother to a useful performer in Angelic Lord and he can make a winning handicap and AW debut here at the chief expense of Jive Lady . Mark Johnston's filly disappointed on her handicap debut last time but was an impressive winner before that and she can see off Gold Filigree who finished second last time out in the race for the runner-up spot today.
