Verdict
BENANDONNER found only Prime Exhibit, who runs in the previous race, too good here last time. The veteran might just be up to landing this easier contest and gets the nod. Aureolin Golf is another with claims after making the frame in this lowly grade last time when he finished ahead of Supa Seeker. The latter has subsequently finished second at Kempton while Partner's Gold had Loius Vee a couple of lengths behind when second over 7f here last week. Compton Silver may prove best of the rest.
