Best Odds
Lightly raced (running for just the fourth time); appears to be going forwards; runner-up, beaten three-quarters of a length, when favourite (Vaal) last month upped to 1m4f; must be respected.

Had two of these rivals behind him when involved in the finish at Vaal 17 days ago; running well at present and appears to be on the upgrade judged on two most recent runs; recent effort was creditable so no surprise to see him go well.

Not disgraced in fourth over 1m here (juvenile plate) when ahead of Uncle Bob and Gus On The Bus two months ago; lightly raced (this just his third race); hard to dismiss.

Verdict
Uncle Bob is lining up on the back of some good runs, and Disdain looks a decent option. However, TRURO LEGACY can land this. He was behind Uncle Bob latest but can now overturn placings.
