Verdict

The Howardian gets the confident vote in the finale with Star Double and Captain Flinders rating the main dangers. The selection hails from a yard in top form was a fair second on his only run to date and under conditions that suit he will be hard to beat. Star Double rates the main danger on his latest third behind Frosty Jack but the suspicion is he will be seen to better effect over a longer trip in time. CFaptain Flinders is another that could go well but he may just need the run after a 528 day abscence. Port Of Mogan is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but he has had plenty of chances in similar races without taking one and with this in mind for the winner we return to The Howardian.
