Verdict

DUB (2) talented gelding who can shed his Maiden status at start seven. Indicated a win was imminent when a narrow second over 6f at Scone. No excuses today. YASENA (13) model of consistency this prep ready to win on the backup. Collared late when second over 6f at Scone. Has her share of talent and will appreciate this weaker race. Snitzel gelding HEATHCLIFF (5) is on debut and gets a good draw. Has shown enough at the trials to expect he is up to making a winning debut. MR BAZZA (4) will be fitter for recent racing so is worth including.
