Verdict

PERFECT TYCOON (3) capped off some solid form with a well-deserved maiden win at Ascot Park 16 days ago. He has the scope to go on with the job, so stick with him. CIMARRON (4) has not won for some time, and was a game third at long odds here 3 weeks ago. He cops another wide gate, but as long as the track is not too wet, he can figure in the top 4 again. PATRAINE (9) is a lightly tried 6-year-old locally trained mare who roared home from well back when finishing runner-up here 3 weeks ago. She will be doing the same here from another wide gate, but could have the last say this time. THE CLUSTER (1) has been out of form, but drops in grade, and usually races best on this track. He has a wide draw, but a form reversal is on the cards. Each way value.
