Verdict

Blue Zenith, Barraland and Attribution are three against the field in a tight handicap and the vote is given to Blue Zenith. The selection has been in good form of late without winning but a reproduction of his latest second behind Heaven looks solid and off the same mark here he looks the one to be on. Barraland rates the main danger on his best form but he was very disappointing for no apparent reason last time out and again he looks vulnerable under top weight. Attribution was a fair fourth behind Ridgewood Dani last time and is another with place claims but he was staying on on that occasion and he may not have the pace to land a blow on this course over this trip and he is taken on with this in mind. Mac Dalia won well last time when beating Lady Vibeeka but this looks tougher. Of the remainder Party In The Park could improve for the fitting of first time blinkers but Blue Zenith looks the one to be on off what looks a handy mark.
