Verdict

ALL BANGED UP (1) travelled a lot closer last start and ran on nicely to get up for third over 6f at this track. Gets out to 7f for the first time which looks the ideal scenario. Clearly the one to beat in a race that lacks depth. MR DEMOCRAT (7) is a 13-start maiden who battled on evenly to finish fifth last time out over this course and distance. Drops 4kgs under today's scale which brings him right into calculations. SAILING SOLO (3) tackled this distance for the first time last start and did a good job to work home into third at this circuit. Progressive rising three-year-old with plenty to offer against a field like this. BRITISH NAVY (2) kept finding to get up for third at his latest appearance over 5 ½f at Mackay. Should relish an extra 1 ½f at this stage. CHECK ONE TWO (6) has been thereabouts of late and can sneak into the top four without surprising.
