Verdict

HALLOWEEN (2) was brave in victory here last week when he came from a wider barrier and raced three deep but proved too strong by 1.3m. Should enjoy better favours from the lower draw so can go on with it. AERODYNE GUY (4) produced a strong performance last time when he raced three wide but battled on bravely for second to Halloween. Primary contender. WILL I AM (6) must be considered after he finished third behind the top two selections last week, his third placing from his last four outings here. DOUBLE SAID (3) draws well and is in the mix after he finished third at Newcastle two weeks ago.
