Verdict

A tightly-knit handicap with a tentative vote going to SUN KING, who signalled he's ready to strike when a close fourth at Yarmouth 2 weeks ago. Hartswood has returned in good order this season and has to be respected, as does Macs Dilemma, who goes well at this track and remains unexposed at the trip.
