Sandy¿s Legend, Lysanders Quest and Three Boars are three against the field in another open affair and the vote is given to Sandy¿d Legend. The selection was a fair fourth behind Blue Hills last time out, she is weighted to gain her revenge on that rival here and with the race sure to be run to suit she looks the value bet in an open affair. Lysanders Quest rates the main danger on his latest fourth behind Go Free. That form has since been franked and he should be closely watched in the market. Three Boars would have a chance on his best form but he is far from consistent so he can not be put forward with any confidence,.Of the remainder I¿ll Do It Today is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but in a race where few can be given a serious chance for the winner we return to Sandy¿s Legend.
