Verdict

A whole host of contenders to consider here in a wide open event where a return to a better surface may well see a few return to form. Sandy Boy despite his last two mishaps still looks a well handicapped sort if he can maintain his balance this time around. Aquarian is one who will appreciate a return to better ground and a shorter trip, with Snazz Man and Little Rich two others that have shown more on a sounder surface. Bomber’s Moon finds himself in this grade for the first time and he can’t be ignored but the suggestion is OUR ROCKSTAR with fact that she now goes handicapping over a trip that will suit a major positive.
  1. Our Rockstar
  2. Sandy Boy
  3. Bomber's Moon
