Verdict

The last leg of the quaddie is a wide-open handicap at BM66 level over 1 ¹/16m. EM SIXTY (3) will don the blinkers for the first time, third up from a spell. He would have been targeted for this suitable race on his home track, and with a recent jump-out under his belt, he will go on top for us. HIGH TEMPO (15) has been making steady progress through the grades, and she will have the services of Nash Rawiller this time. A wide gate could be an advantage, and she can take this out. BOTH SIDES NOW (11) has been unsuited to leading in her last couple of starts, and she may be ridden with cover this time. She is unbeaten in a couple of starts on this track, and she can make amends. Each-way. RASP (7) has come of age this prep, winning 2 of his 3 starts, including his last start at Pakenham nearly 3 weeks ago by nearly 4 lengths. Stick with him. MIDNIGHT GLOW (20) has been freshened since his last start fifth and his recent quiet jump-out will have him ready to run boldly here. Include.
