Verdict

CIRCUS DANCER (2) resumes from a spell after being good enough to be stakes placed as a 3YO last season. She likes some cut in the ground, comes to hand quickly, and we think she can make a winning return to the track. OUR AKASHINGA (5) capped off some strong form with a solid last start win as the favourite at Otaki just over 5 weeks ago. She is down in weight with the rise in class, and she can measure up again. BRUTIFUL LASS (9) took her time to win a maiden, and then doubled the dose immediately at Hastings a fortnight ago. The hat-trick beckons. OH MAIMAI (8) is a very promising mare resuming from a spell on her home track, and she will be ready to rumble.
