A competitive claimer in which KATHINDI is narrowly preferred to Glen Lass and Cuts Both Ways. Stan Moore's colt is blinkered for the first time this afternoon after a poor effort at Wolverhampton last month. He is better rated on his beating of Bubbly Braveheart in February (subsequently disqualified for interference) and if the blinkers spark him back into life then at these weights he should run well. Cordiality drops in grade, whilst Sassanian has been off for a while and is interesting with Shane Kelly in the saddle. Spirit Land needs to have improved for his break, Underworld Dandy is too hit-and-miss to recommend, whilst Glen Lass should appreciate a drop in trip and grade this afternoon. Any market move for the dropping-in-grade Cuts Both Ways should be noted, however along with the consistent Captain Cool he is passed over in favour of Kathindi.
