4lb below last winning mark and has run well on soft ground; blinkers go on

Has winning form in soft ground and can go well fresh but others make greater appeal

2-29, but with few other front-runners in the field he could enjoy the run of the race

3-34 but acts on any ground and has dropped to a fair mark; could go well
8 (2)	Little Muddy b Dale Swift · Seb Spencer	Dale Swift · Seb Spencer	126	—	13363-	66	88	79	158d	—	—	—	11.4	—
Both wins on a sound surface but she does handle soft ground; may need the run
9 (6)	High Opinion b Harrison Shaw · Bryan Smart	Harrison Shaw · Bryan Smart	125	—	64214-	65	87	75	149d	—	—	—	13.3	—
