Verdict

What's Up Doc has been successful at this grade before and Clear Sailing has been in some decent for of late but our selection goes to WATERSIDE. Sean Curran's gelding has been ever improving since his return to the track back in January and he was a winner here last time out. This confirmed that he is still a horse capable of winning modest races despite his advancing years and he looks likely to follow up on that victory with a win here. What's Up Doc has been a little inconsistent since returning from a three month break, he has been running respectably though and can make the frame on his course debut here in modest company. Ollie Pear's has had Clear Sailing in good from of late. The gelding has proven very effective on the all weather and likes to dominate. However, he looked a little venerable last time and finishing in the minors looks more than likely. Don Pietro and Krugerrand cannot be discounted here. Both have shown good recently but neither looks better than our selection Waterside.
