Verdict
Goodnightsuzy has been knocking on the door lately and will be hard to keep out of the frame again. Archipeligo won over a shorter trip at Hamilton under Kyle Currie in September but was then only second over this course and distance and has gone up a further 5lb since. Cornelious had little to beat at Chelmsford last time but Love Marmalade could go well eased in grade while High And Flighty is still relatively unexposed. CELESTIAL BAY won off a higher mark at Chelmsford in the spring. She has been a bit disappointing since but in better races than this and could be a bit of value this afternoon.
