Verdict

RAY SPRINT (9) produced a nice effort on debut in better company last start over 5 ½f at this track when second, beaten 2 lengths. Promising type with improvement to come so he will be hard to beat. KEIKI KANE (2) was in the firing line on the corner and ran a better race last start to finish a close second over 1 ¹/16m at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. KARENDA HORSE (5) found the line nicely to grab third last time out over 1 ¹/16m at this track. Key runner who can get home hard into the finish. FULL OF POPS (6) finished second last time over 1 ¹/16m at this track, beaten 0.8 lengths. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run again.
