        Verdict

        La Capriosa and Halaak re-oppose each other here with the former coming out on top last time but despite the swing in terms in favour of Halaak we look elsewhere and go for READILY, who is now potentially really well handicapped. The selection was definitely given too much to do by the assessor when he joined the handicap ranks and as a result his form was sketchy at best. Recent efforts though have pointed to the fact his mark is getting to about the right level and he now looks ready to drop his maidens tag. La Capriosa's consistency was rewarded with a victory over six furlongs, here, last time out. Her reward is a six pounds penalty and while in it's self that's not a major concern the swing to Halaak in terms of weight could be. Halaak then re-opposes he conqueror with a bit in his favour this time and should overturn the form from the last meeting. We are yet to see this one over the minimum trip and as a result we don't know if he'll have the outright speed to score. As the only won to win over this trip Tillers Satisfied has to be respected although the handicapped seems to be in charge with this one so Readily has the verdict on this occasion.
