Verdict

INTELLECTUAL (2) had their measure first-up when finishing alongside the winner here, and he's sure to have tightened right up from that outing. He's got the tactical speed to offset the wide draw and can go one better. SASSY FOR SURE (7) jumped favourite in that same race but left herself with far too much to do off a dawdling early tempo. They won't want to repeat that mistake - with a more positive ride she can absolutely turn the tables. SIR MYKA (4) was only half a length off Intellectual fresh and is another natural improver, though he does meet him slightly worse at the weights. Still right in the mix. WICKED STORM (5) brings different formlines and winning ones. This is tougher, but he carries confidence and deserves respect.
