Verdict

SWINGING EDDIE finally got off the mark when scoring over track and trip last week and another bold bid is expected despite today’s penalty having returned a clear winner. Onebaba makes a quick reappearance having won over 6f here a couple of days ago and also carries 5lb extra while both Firsteen and Bold Decision went close over 6f on their respective latest starts. Fenix may improve for the first-time headgear while Word Of Honour races over 7f for the first time.
