Well held in two starts since wind surgery in the spring. Stepping up in distance and probably best watched at present.

Forecasts

Archie Perkins (2/1), Kenmare River (9/2), My Brother Mike (6/1), Prancing Oscar (7/1), John Caesar (7/1), Allnite (12/1), Gealach Ghorm (12/1), Mont Royal (14/1), Airplane (16/1), Chaucer's Tale (25/1), Procida (50/1), Breton Blues (66/1)

Verdict

JOHN CAESAR has been running consistently well in recent times and he can record a victory in this competitive handicap contest. The selection ran well over shorter here last time out but stays this trip and can get the better of Allnite who is dropping in trip following a career best effort last time out and remains unexposed over middle distances. Archie Perkins has finished in the frame on his two most recent starts and can take third stepping back up in distance.
  1. John Caesar
  2. Allnite
  3. Archie Perkins
