Verdict

DAMAS (2) is a super consistent type who has a win and seven minors from 10 starts. Had a long break before returning with a big run over 5f when hit the line hard and placed. Will strip much fitter after the long lay-off. Placed 3/3 second-up and goes very well here. Looks tough to beat. PRANCING QUEEN (6) charged home from the back fresh to finish in the minors. Second-up winner and looks a leading chance again. AUDIO POP CAM (7) also found the line nicely fresh and will be better for it. Blinkers added and should be a big improver. TURNAQUID (11) charged home fresh in an eye-catching run and has a great record here.
