Verdict

I CAN TOO (6) continued a strong run of recent form and deserved his win last start, scoring by 1.1 metres over 1 ?/16m at this track. His last-start form is good enough to take out a race like this. BALTIC STAR (5) has been racing very well and registered another victory last time out, scoring by 2.5 metres over 1 ¼m at this track. Primary contender in a similar assignment. TWO JULES (7) is on the radar after her last-start sixth over 1 ?/16m at this track three-and-a-half weeks ago. BROOKIES PLAYER (1) must be considered after he finished runner-up over 1 ?/16m at this track a week ago.
