Verdict

In truth, the forecast heavy ground probably isn't ideal for any of these. EYE OF A TIGER meets Baby Kate and Blue Waters on significantly worse terms than she would if this were a handicap but, on the upside, there's a good chance that she'll be allowed a soft lead, while the return to this sphere could have an uplifting effect following a failed experiment over fences. At the forecast prices the 6-y-o might be worth chancing.
