Verdict

CRYPTO CAUSEWAY has won his last two starts in a pleasing manner and is difficult to oppose with his bid to complete a three-timer. Interstate and Styner are capable of making this a good test and each warrants a betting check at the very least.

Verdict

Our Man Mike has a decent record here and is a must for consideration, while the four-timer seeking Starship Tango has been in excellent form of late but this is a stiffer test. Nevertheless, RHYMES LIKE DIMES appeals the most with this representing a drop in class.
