Verdict

Very moderate line-up with many non-winners. FLYING SHELBY (2) doesn't win out of turn but does boast good form this. Carried almost 154lbs in a highweight last time and freshened for this dropping back to the mile. Will be strong at the finish and gets chance to find form. ARCHDEACON (12) is yet to place in three runs here and yet to win in 13 tries at the trip but does have good recent form for this. Kept coming last time after a slow start and should be in the mix. ON THE MAP (7) was thereabouts last time and has winning claims this line-up. SPLASH OF WHITE (6) may appreciate the extra trip now and is drawn for a soft run. SPELMAN (3) is better than last run when too far back and certainly worth another chance.
