Verdict

ROYAL DEL (6) finished 11th last start over 1 ?m at this track, beaten 195 metres, after a good second at Addington the run prior. His last run should be overlooked. Good enough to take out a race like this. HOLLY HIGHLANDER (4) missed the placings for the second time in a row at the most recent outing when 13 metres away in fourth over 1 ?m at Addington. Recent form includes a win at Mt Harding three starts back on April 12. Beautifully placed and is sure to play a major role. MM SUNSHINE (9) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish third at this track over 1 ?m. Genuine threat. MONARCH PRINCE (8) is the next elect off a last-start win by 7 metres at Motukarara Raceway over 1 5/16m.
