Verdict

CREEK (5) has been closing off strongly in both runs back and looks primed to strike third-up as he rises to a winning trip. Doesn't need to improve much to get the verdict. TESTING ONE TWO (7) resumes for the Hickmott yard and has been readied with solid jumpouts. Draws favourably for Pannell and can make a winning start for the stable. SWIFTIE HARRIET (2) bounced back last start when chasing gamely to just miss. The draw isn't as kind this time, so she may be ridden quieter, but she remains a genuine chance. HIS FINEST HOUR (1) also resumes, this time for the Dyer camp, and has trialled well. With the claim he gets in nicely and can make a bright return. LIKE A DIAMOND (10) ran into the frame when resuming and looks a likely improver. Adds value to exotics.
