      Verdict

      EUREKA MOMENT can break her maiden tag at the 11th time of asking in this moderate opener, and is taken to get the better of Locum and Capstan.Twice recently she's got the better of Peas 'n Beans, and first time blinkers should assist in seeing her finally end a run of twos next to her name. She's bottom weight, and although no world beater, should be better than this motley collection. Locum and Capstan are both regulars in making the frame and look to have a win within them. Gary Moore and George Baker have a good strike rate when teaming up which could encourage support for Capstan. Locum has a high draw which could prove advantageous. Both are expected to be in contention, but we think they'll have a good view of the selection, Eureka Moment.
