In depth

Verdict

A three-time C&D winner, Hit The Switch would have every chance if fully wound-up for his first start since January last year, while Positivity has to come into the reckoning having beaten Nevada Desert here in February. Buzz Bird has dropped to a tempting mark and the same can be said of Betteras Bertie, but a chance is taken on ALL RIGHT NOW. He left his poor form on Polytrack well behind when finishing second on his debut here a fortnight ago. This surface clearly brings out the best in him and there should be more to come from Derek Haydn Jones' charge today.
