Comfortably beaten when sixth at 6-4 disappointing from a good draw 23 days ago at Greyville upped to 1m1f; improved form the last twice; can give it a good shot.

Already a gelding; sire a rich source of sprint winners; a line drawn through unless betting signals are positive with others looking more obvious on paper.

Stable is operating at a respectable strike-rate; sire's progeny have a good record in sprints; gelded already; first race for the son of Oratorio; a chance he could be better with a run under his belt.

Verdict

This is not a race for maximum stakes but ONE ARMED BANDIT is worth siding with. He can be forgiven a modest run latest. Global Drumbeat is capable of better, Fine Dining is capable of running well, and Vila Vicosa looks the most dangerous rival.
