Verdict
Amilliontimes won at Perth last time beating Dynamic Drive and Pulpitarian. Endeavor has every chance on collateral form having beaten Push Me over track and trip but SNOWED IN gets the nod. The latter was second to Sleep In First at Sedgefield last month but re-opposes on better terms and can come out best in a tight race. Muwalla is not without a chance back over timber and looks best of the rest.
