Verdict

All four of the runners that turn up for this handicap have a chance but PERFECT SHOT is given our vote, after a convincing victory on his first attempt at this trip last time, ahead of fellow last time out success story Dazinski. Three and a half lengths was the margin of success for the pick on his last start. He won going away and in the manner to suggest that the seven pounds added to his load for that won¿t stop him following up. Dazinski also scored on his first attempt at this trip last time and although his yard have continued to send out winner this week he looks to have a bit to find on the pick. Amerigo won on his only previous visit to this track but looks to have stamina to prove for this trip while Aajel takes on this distance for the first time but if he can pick up from where he left off nearly two years ago he will be a challenger. There may only be four runners but it's difficult call with Perfect Shot looking to have the best shot.
