Verdict

VERHOEVEN (3) has hit the line powerfully last two and placed at each. Goes up a grade but drops in weight and leading rider goes aboard. Tough to hold out late. NANDI CLAN (4) raced on the speed from the outset last start and finished third, beaten 3.5 lengths, over 7f at this track. Ready to win and looks hard to beat. SH'BOURNE POWER (1) saluted when resuming last start at this track over 7f after he was in the firing line on the turn. Has found the frame in all three starts at this journey, including two wins. Has a formidable combination with Kirra-Lee Lane who has been aboard for his last two wins. Has winning claims on best figures. MEGALITA (2) produced a reasonable effort when second last start over 6 ¾f at Devonport Synthetic. That followed a win at Devonport Synthetic the start prior. One of the main hopes. ROYAL DETECTIVE (7) is fitter and can do better.
