In depth

Verdict

A tough race to call here for punters with very little between many of the leading lights but the principals look to be Twisted Logic, Would You Believe and Petolinski, and the tentative vote is given to Would You Belive. The selection was going well until unshipping his rider last time out. He remains on a fair mark and in the hope that he puts in a fluent round of fencing-ng he will be very hard to beast. Twisted Lodgic rates the main danger as he won well last time out when beating Metal Detector but this looks more competitive and he looks vulnerable under his penalty. Petolinski is another worthy of respect as he has won his last two races in good style. However the handicapper has now had his say and he looks vulnerable off this mark. Johnny¿s Kick goes well at the track and could run well at a price the same comment applies to Runaway Bishop but for the winner we are happy to return to Would You Belive
