Shatter Resistant gets the confident vote in this handicap with Night Premiere and Expediter rating the main dangers. The selection was a fair second behind Montzando last time out looks sure to improve for the return to six furlongs and off the same mark here looks the one to be on. Night Premiere rates the main danger on his latest fourth behind Mullien but he looks to have plenty of weight for what she has actually achieved. Expediter hails from a yard in form and looks to be on a fair mark for this his first run in a handicap and he should be watched in the market. Solo River is another that has shaped with promise in the past but he is more exposed than most of his rivals and is taken on with this in mind. Of the others, Forever Changes has a good draw for his style of running and could go well at a price but for the winner we are happy to return to Shatter Resistant who ran so well last time out.
