        Verdict

        A wide open handicap here and many would have chances on their best form but the principals look to be Dispol Veleta, Mount Hillaby, Tuscarora, and Strong Hand and the narrow vote is given to Mount Hillaby. The selection won in game fashion last time out when beating Bailieborough, that form has since been franked and although she has a penalty for that win she again has conditions in her favour and will be hard to beat.Dispol Veleta rates the main danger as she also won well last time out when defeating Fiddlers Creek but all her best form is on slightly softer and for that reason she is opposed. Tuscarora is another worthy of respect as she also won well last time out when beating Manic and has won off a higher mark in the past. However she is best coming off a fast pace and that does not looked guaranteed here and for that reason she is over looked. Strong Hand is from the same stable as the selection and has dropped to a handy mark so should be noted in the market but she has been very disappointing of late so can not be put forward with any confidence and in a race that throws up more questions than answers for the winner we return to Mount Hillaby.
