Verdict

David Pipe would dearly love to snare this prize and his unbeaten MR BIG SHOT might just send him close. He wasn't seriously tested in landing either start over timber last spring and has been handed a chance here from this opening handicap mark. Flawless Escape caught everyone's eye with his run behind Total Recall last time out, he's likely to go well for the Elliott team, but the handicapper hasn't missed him. Handicap debutants Early Doors and Carter McKay are worth paying attention to while Tommy Rapper, Melrose Boy and Burrows Saint all have their merits too.
  1. Mr Big Shot
  2. Burrows Saint
  3. Early Doors
