Verdict

BOLD PRINT (1) led throughout last start to score an effortless 2.25 lengths win over 5f at this track. He's a speedy sort who loves this route and finds another winnable race, takes catching once more. ASMITA (5) tested on a synthetic surface for the first time today on her return from a lengthy spell. Likes this trip and has the figures to challenge. ETERNAL JOY (6) has been solid of late, fourth behind Bold Print here last time when in the market. Can bridge the margin. WATTEN ASSETT (2) got off the mark over 5f at this track last start, scoring by 0.8 lengths. Can measure up with natural improvement.
