Verdict

The slow ground is a worry regarding TOGA TIGER's chances of landing a hat-trick of C&D wins but he's worth sticking with considering the limitations of today's opposition. He won by over four lengths here last week and Jeremy Gask's charge still looks ahead of the handicapper, despite a penalty. Polytrack winner Warbond ran well over track and trip on his return to this surface and Avon Supreme has been threatening to open her account on Turf of late with a couple of placed efforts at Yarmouth. Diddums has dropped back down to a winning mark but would prefer faster going and it's difficult to make a strong case for any of the remainder.
