Verdict

ENDUED (2) is racing well, holding his form since winning back in March. He finished strongly last start to be 0.2L off the winner at this track and trip and Ethan Brown now hops on board. Draws the best gate he's seen for a while and he looks the one to beat on his recent form. BIG RETURN (8) made it a hat-trick of wins last time out when scoring by 0.5L in easier company. He steps up to C3 today, but he drops 14lbs for the rise in grade and he is unbeaten since stepping out to the mile. This shapes similarly and it wouldn't surprise to see him continue his winning ways. COMPLETE UNKNOWN (11) stuck on well here a fortnight ago to miss out by 0.5L, but that was his first attempt at the mile. He should be better for that performance and he still has stacks of upside. Can make his presence felt. POPE CODY (3) won't be far away.
