Verdict

FOREMOST TEDDY (14) made it back-to-back wins last start in impressive fashion once again, with the gelding taking a liking to the front running tactics and AW surface. He drops in weight today for the rise in grade and he should be able to find the front once again from a good draw. Can bring up the hat-trick. STAR BROSE (12) is another who rises in grade off a win last start and drops down to 118lbs. He's had a quiet trial since then and Atzeni hops in the saddle. Likely to be back in the run, but can mow his rivals down with no weight on his back. DOUBLE WIN (3) missed as favourite over 1 ¼m on the turf course last time out. He was a little disappointing over this trip at Happy Valley two back, but he gets onto the AW today where he has trialled well in the past. Can be in the finish. SERANGOON (7) wasn't beaten far on the Turf here last start over 1 ¼m and rates well on that effort.
