Verdict

SHARK WARNING (4) did a great job to score by a neck over this course and distance last start to maintain his good form of late. Nicely placed to take this out. BEACH AIMMING (14) missed the placings two starts back then ran a better race and finished 1.1 lengths away in fourth last time out over 1m at this track. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. PIECE FIELD (10) finished 6 lengths adrift in eighth last time at this track in a disappointing performance. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. TOSEN DEEN (3) settled well back and failed to live up to expectations over 1m at this track last time out when in the market. That followed a good second the run prior. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways.
