Verdict

A tough handicap here for punters to call with many in form rivals in opposition including Landing Strip, Ashtree Belle and Compton Dynamo and we will take a chance on the last named. The gelding from the Willie Musson yard is a course and distance winner and he was a fair sixth behind Najebon last time with conditions again in his favour he will be hard to beat. Landing strip rates the main danger he was a fair fourth behind Masdresee last time when Jayanjay was sixth he should confirm superiority over that rival on the same terms here. Ashtree Belle is also worthy of respect he was a fair fourth behind Haripur last time and that form has since been franked but the drop back to six furlongs is not sure to suit. Of the remainder Canterloupe has dropped to a handy mark and is worth noting in the market with his stable beginning to find some form. Bandit Queen could also go well now she is tried in first time blinkers but we are happy to side with Compton Dynamo.
