Verdict

MALAWI sets a clear standard on his debut run at Dundalk earlier in the month. He should be able to improve and may take all the beating here. Xeres is still a maiden after five attempts but he's solid enough and could play a part. Point Nepean is an interesting newcomer who warrants respect.
