Verdict

The 4YO Classic Cup now and NUMBERS (2) makes plenty of appeal coming here off a strong G3 victory at this track and trip. He jumped an odds-on chance there and despite doing things wrong, he still won easily by 2L. Has the speed to roll across from out wide and he'll be very tough to run down. LITTLE PARADISE (1) exploded from the back of the pack to win the Classic Mile by 2L in fine style for Ho. Drawn a little better this time around and he should be able to take closer order. Seeing is believing and he can bring up his fourth win in-a-row. SAGACIOUS LIFE (3) was trending the right way but may have been looking for further in the 4YO Classic Mile. He was beaten 2.8L there, but looked a horse wanting more ground which he gets today. Can see him settling close to the speed and being right in the finish. BEAUTY BOLT (6) steps out to this trip for the first time today and can feature after a gutsy performance in the Classic Mile.
