Verdict

STERLING WONGCHOY (4) hasn't been to this track and trip for a while but his last run was superb back in December. Her latest effort over 6f off a freshen was superb and sets her up nicely for this. Maps perfectly and can return to winning ways today. TELECOM POWER (3) is knocking on the door of another win, missing by 1.5L at this track and trip last time out. Chung was on board for his latest trial and he remains in the saddle today. Ticks enough boxes despite the wide draw and can go one better this time around. DRAGON SUNRISE (10) gets the blinkers on first time today and comes back from the 1 ?m journey. Purton hops on board for the first time today in a good push for his chances and if he can navigate the outside alley, she'll be right in the finish. WAH MAY WAI WAI (8) hasn't won for a while but his latest effort was strong and his recent trials have been super. Can feature.
