Verdict

LA DANZA (10) was a fast finishing runner-up on debut and then closed off strongly for sixth at Matamata a fortnight ago. She steps up from a mile to 1 5/16m third up, and should be the one to beat. PILE DRIVER (2) needed his last start and will have less time between starts this time. A good draw will help, and a form reversal is expected. Each way value. ASTARTE (9) is having no luck with her barrier draws and cops another tough gate here. She steps up in trip for her peak effort, and is not without top 4 claims in this modest field. FRENCH THINKER (7) has hit the line strongly for third in her last couple of starts, and will be making her middle-distance debut here. Stick with her. TALL TIMBER (6) is bred to relish getting out over more ground, and has a chance to finish a lot closer this time. Include in all combinations.
