Verdict

Tiger Grass showed much improved form on his first start for Martin Pipe when in won a similar contest easily and he need only reproduce that effort to win this moderate affair. Navarre Samson won in game fashion at Southwell last time out and he rates the main danger although the ground will be plenty fast enough for him. Access Overseas is a course winner over a longer trip and he may come on for the run after a long absence. Hobart Junction could also run into a place after his fair third last time out.
