        Verdict

        Another Time owes connection's nothing having won eleven races in his time. At his peak he was a more than useful handicapper having won off a mark of 89, and while he is some way below that now he may still be good enough to win this. My Pledge hasn't won for over two years and hasn't shown any promise for a while. Friendly Alliance has ability, but his record of one win from 23 outings speaks volumes, while Rousing Thunder also has a similar profile having won one from 22.
