Verdict

GALATA BRIDGE wasn't all out to keep the runner-up at bay at Plumpton, and with further improvement to come now handicapping, he looks the most appealing candidate. Samba Dancer remains on a fair mark back in a handicap so needs taking seriously, especially given the way his Worcester form on his penultimate start has worked out. Blueberg is another to note returning from wind surgery.
