Verdict

ONE PLUS ONE (4) deserves top billing after a dominant COND A win at this track over 1m, scoring by four lengths as favourite and doing it with clear authority. The 1 ?m is new, but he has weight relief, is third-up and brings the sharpest last-start win among the main chances. MOST WANTED (10) is the obvious danger after going under by only half a length as a well-supported favourite at this venue over 1m, and his recent track record is strong enough to keep him right in the winning argument. BEAT BOY (9) improved sharply third-up when beaten just under two lengths at this track and has at least placed at around 1 ?m, which gives him a more settled distance profile than some rivals. WORLD TREE (1) was beaten only a neck last start and has drawn to make his own luck, though his first attempt at 1 ?m makes him more of a place and knockout chance than a clear win selection.
