Verdict

DALT JAZ (6) is ready to win after he just missed last time, beaten a neck into third over 5 ½f at this track after being prominent from the outset. Drawn to go forward and is nicely placed to feature in the finish. ZAYA (10) was just out of the money two runs back then again just missed the frame last start over 5 ½f here, beaten 0.7 lengths into fourth. Expect a better run this time. ANSWERING (4) showed good early speed and raced on the pace last start before fading to finish fifth, beaten 1.4 lengths, over 5 ½f at this venue. Top-three conveyance. SINGULAR (1) turned things around last start and got the job done by a neck over 5 ½f at this course. Anticipating another big run.
