Verdict

SLIPPIN' JIMMY (1) has been plying his trade in Saturday metro company of late and will appreciate the drop back in grade here. Rock-hard fit now fourth run back and should be right there when the whips are cracking. FLYING BAT (5) has placed over this track and trip and gets in well at the weights with Apel's claim. Can make his presence felt. ATMOSPHERE (2) saves his best form for this trip and is much better than the recent effort suggests. Can bounce right back without surprising. DEEP RESPECT (3) got the job done over this course and distance last time out and will have derived some confidence from that victory. In the mix. FORT WILLIAM (6) is a last-start winner who shouldn't be slept on.
