Verdict

COLOURFUL KING (1) has gone under as a short-priced favourite his past couple and comes to Happy Valley once again. He's place din both attempts at this track and trip and Purton sticks with him. He'll get back from the draw but he rates highly on his recent efforts and looks the one to beat. BRAVE STAR (4) missed by 1.3L two back before a 2L defeat most recently under Ho. Drawing away from the outside is a big tick for him and he rates highly on his latest run. Can return to winning ways. ROMANTIC SON (7) is in winning form and was very impressive at the trials recently. He's right down in the weights again today and the inside draw is a big tick. Hits this in form and he can bring up the hat-trick. GUSTOSISIMO (9) comes back to this track and trip today where he's a two-time winner. Not out of this.
