Verdict

Despite having raced 13 times, MARSHALL FOCH appears to be on the upgrade and can complete a hat-trick. Paul Peter's charge is stepping up slightly in distance but came home so easily here last month that he'll be difficult to beat in that form. Glider Pilot arrives in fine form having gained a surprise victory here in January before a very good second to Chitengo on a return visit earlier this month, though both runs came over 1m4f. Finchatton is another arriving in good shape having beaten a subsequent winner over the trip at Vaal in January before a narrow defeat by Nordic Rebel back there three weeks later. Gavin Lerena's mount looks the main threat though Fact has had a nice break since scoring over the course and distance.
