Verdict

In the seller, Romil Star gets the vote ahead of Moon Shot and Mossman Gorge. On official ratings and recent form, the only pair you can realistically give a chance to are Moon Shot and Romil Star, with the vote going to the last-named horse. A course and distance winner, there is more than enough in th way if his recent form for Romil Star to be given an excellent chance of gaining a well-earned win today. Moon Shot is an obvious danger back at arguably his best trip, although the selection might just find a little more when the chips are down. Wind the clock back 21 months and you would have to consider Fleetfoot Mac, while Mossman Gorge has more than enough form to be considered at this fairly lowly level, although his all-weather record is not the best, but the remainder would seem to have a lot find in order to score; all of which returns us to the selection, which is Romil Star.
