      Verdict

      POLITICS has won two of only four outings since joining Mick Appleby and wasn’t stopping when scoring at Lingfield a week ago. He can defy a penalty and get the better of Momaer. The latter makes her handicap debut after winning a novices' race at Lingfield while The Nail Gunner posted one of his better efforts when runner-up over track and trip. Chookie Dunedin is back on a winning mark if rediscovering his best.
