Verdict

DATEOTOKO (4) was safely held when fourth last time out over 7 ½f at this track, beaten 3 lengths. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Has the ability to take this out. BLACK TOURMALINE (12) booted up from the inside draw to sit on the speed when resuming last start then stuck on well to finish 4 lengths away in second over 7f at this track. Nicely placed to play a major role. S G SPARKLE (7) could only manage seventh two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 7 ½f at this track, beaten 3 lengths after being in contention on the turn. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. ROKUNO RAINBOW (2) was prominent at the turn and finished third last start at the first run back from a spell over 7f at this track, beaten 5 lengths. Has started three times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. In the right race and is a winning hope.
