Verdict

MACCHINETTA (8) progressed nicely last time out at the second run of the campaign and finished just a neck from the winner in third over 7 ½f at this track. Meeting a tougher field but on his best form he is one of the chief contenders. SOVEREIGN RULER (9) won his maiden over this course and distance last start, getting the verdict by a head. Shaping up nicely and he is worth including. ONE LOVE (1) last appeared a month ago over 7 ½f at this track when she finished fifth. This is her first run for the Noboru Sakamoto stable. Can measure up for the new barn. EXTRA LIGHT (6) went forward from the low draw last time before fading to finish fifth over 7 ½f at this track. Place chance.
