Comfortably beaten into sixth over 7f at Greyville (maiden plate) three months ago; has displayed improved form on last two starts but winless with run of consecutive defeats standing at 14; this looks a decent race so makes little appeal.

Missed the frame (beaten 13l into sixth) here over 1m (maiden plate) six weeks ago; attempting to get off the mark at the seventh time of asking (fifth his best finish so far); a few rivals look in good form so easy enough to take on.

Sire gets his share of decent sorts; trainer more than capable of getting one ready first time out; already a gelding; he can make a bold bid with signs of encouragement in profile and his sire is a speed influence.

Verdict

Run Forest Run needs to be considered while Real War is a genuine contender who should be on your radar. But TOP SEED is a firm selection. He is open to big improvement on just his second start and the benefit of experience may give him an edge over some of these.
