In depth

Verdict

McCool Bannanas went close over C&D yet again when runner-up last Monday. He has to come into the reckoning but has had plenty of chances to open his account without doing so. Beetuna won here way back in 2008 and showed a bit more last time, but Ashgrove Nell hasn't looked like winning since her C&D victory last September. Sky Diamond is back on a winning mark but is out of sorts and a chance is taken on EXCUSE ME, who will have come on for his reappearance at this track and may be capable of better on his handicap debut.
