Verdict

Tag Team has solid claims on form but Jamie Spencer's mount has been done few favours with a draw in stall 10 and a safer bet looks to be the veteran Further Outlook with Hillbilly Cat rated the best of the rest. The selection has not had a great deal of racing on the sand in the past but there is no reason why he should not handle it and son of Zilzal could not be better drawn for a front-runner than in stall one round here. Still capable of decent form at the age of 12, Gay Kelleway's gelding is taken to resume winning ways. Caustic Wit was good value for his win here two starts ago and cannot be discounted but is another that has a difficult draw to over come so a bigger threat may come from the consistent Hillbilly Cat, although there is a suspicion that he may now be a shade high in the weights. That should not be a problem for Further Outlook though and he is taken to resume winning ways.
