      Verdict

      This won't take much winning and though HANNO has undoubtedly been disappointing his overall form in better company than this gives him the edge though he's never raced on very fast ground. Lockhart looks the logical alternative as Mark Johnston's 145,000gns purchase has shown some ability in his two runs to date. Cliff has looked moderate so far and may do better in handicaps though still looks best of the remainder.
