    Verdict

    Ellamyte is taken to score in the opener with Bunkhouse and Mickledo put forward as the most likely dangers. The selection has been disappointing of late but this is his easiest assignment for some time and with the very capable David Nolan in the plate he may be capable of taking this weak affair. Bunkhouse rates the main danger as he was a close fourth behind Law Maker over this course and distance last month. A reproduction of that effort would see him go close. Mickledo was disappointing last time here and although he may be capable of gaining some place money, he is not at his best over this minimum trip so we will take him on. Flapdoodle would have claims on the pick of her form and she is from a shrewd yard so she is worth noting in the market, but for the winner we return to Ellamyte.
