Verdict

Cascade Hall hasn't quite been at his best on his last couple of starts but the drop in trip offers him the opportunity to produce a better performance. That said, his stable companion ANNANDALE gets the nod. The eight-year-old ran with plenty of credit to finish third over C&D last Monday and wouldn't need to improve much on that effort to get back to winning ways. Simple Star heads the remainder.
