Verdict

HEAPY'S LEGACY (10) jumped sharply in trip second-up when he surged late to finish a respectable second over this trip at Scone. Three weeks between runs when he pushed forward from a wide draw before dropping out to run tenth over 1 ¹/16m at Scone. Complete mystery last start and finds an easier race today. ZOUGO BOSS (8) win record hardly excites and saves his best for the 1m. Given the right run from the inside gate but failed to close off when fifth over 1 ¹/16m at Scone. This looks more to his liking and gets weight relief from the low draw. Sharp improvement expected. TWICE AZ COOL (7) hard fit for this and looks ready for the extra ground after struggling to close off over the shorter distances. From a leading country yard and must be kept safe. ATHENA'S TREASURE (1) is building in fitness and showed improvement last start so could be ready to strike.
