    Verdict

    After a taking victory in selling hurdle last time TABARAN is the choice for us in this timber handicap with fellow last time out winner Parlesotho and the consistent Key Cutter also making the list. A literal reading of the pick's 25 lengths victory last time would suggest he's well treated back in handicap company and with that score the latest of a sequence of good runs he has very chance of following up. Parlesotho is a definite danger though after his own facile success last time. That came in a handicap and it is unlikely that his 7lbs penalty will stop him running a big race. Key Cutter has been running well but has ultimately been well held in recent starts and his mark is still creeping up while Singapore Reef wasn't that far away in a novice handicap last time and off the same mark should be in the mix. Benedict Spirit is only a couple of pounds worse off than when just missing out on his last run so is another for consideration but Tabaran is on top form and is potentially well weighted.
