Verdict

SHARDS LYRIC (8) turned in a strong performance last start when she battled on bravely to just miss out over 1 ¼m at this track. Must overcome a very wide draw. Tackles a similar assignment and she can take care of this line-up. ROVERT DECISION (7) produced a strong performance last time when she battled on bravely to just miss out over 1 ?m at Addington. The driver has some work to do from this wide starting position. Ideally placed and is sure to be there at the finish. FUSION REACTOR (1) is in the mix following a respectable third at his most recent appearance over 1 ³/16m at Addington. NORMIE STEAD (3) is worth some thought despite his last-start ninth over 1 ?m at Addington on May 1.
