Verdict

Another wide open affair in which many can be given chances. Sharmy won well when defeating Fiddlers Creek and although he is worse off at the weights with that rial here he won with a shade in hand and he is taken to defy his penalty. Flying Treaty would be a danger to all on his best form but he was very disappointing on his first run for his new stable. Dream Magic was touched off by Gallant Boy in a driving finish last time out and again there will not be much between them with only a one pound pull in the weights. Compton Bolter was sixth in the same race behind Gallant Boy but he is sure to have come on for that run his first after a long absence. Of the remainder Look First could go well at a big price if he stays the trip.
