Verdict

WEYBRIDGE LIGHT is the selection with Turban Heights and Azabu Juban as the alternatives. The selection was handicapped incredibly well by connections and has gone on from strength to strength throughout the autumn and looks to be capable of making it four on the spin. Turban Heights has similarly improved. This will be a tough task to give weight all around to much more progressive opposition. Azabu Juban has been nursed back to health by current connections and he will be back with his regular pilot, Luke Morris, on this occasion. Baan's tilts at Classic opposition seem a distant memory. Clear Reef is capable though frustrating. Prince Zafonic has solid placed form though has yet to get his head infront. Dundry has been a disappointment. Weybridge Light can continue his progression up the ranks.
