Verdict

It could pay to stick with WHITECREST in this modest company as he bids for a four-timer having won over track and trip last week. Torment has plenty to find on earlier running with the selection but Top of The Bank looks a bigger threat back on this surface with Silvestre De Sousa on board. Curious Fox should be sharper for a recent comeback and is preferred to K'gari Spirit while Major Crispies was due to run at Chelmsford yesterday.
