Verdict

INVINCIBLE SHIELD (8) scored in a photo two back before missing in a photo last start as the race favourite. He drops in weight despite that narrow defeat as he rises in class today. Loves this track and trip and he's shown he's a versatile character. Can go one better today. STORM RIDER (7) disappointed last start as the race favourite after back-to-back wins prior. He's been back to the trials where he looked good and Teetan hops back on board having won twice aboard him. Can put his best foot forward. STELLAR EXPRESS (6) got home by just a neck at his latest appearance over 5f at this track. Nice weight drop so he shapes as one to consider. LIGHT YEARS CHARM (5) ran a better race last start to finish a close third over 7f at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Suitably placed so he can feature again.
