Verdict

CHRISTIAN BALE (9) is a lightly-raced gelding who produced a career-best effort last start, finishing third over 1 ³/16m at this track. Recent efforts are good enough to win a race of this calibre. KOTARE ARGENT (5) was expected to do a lot more at the first run back from a break last start when fifth, beaten 2.5 metres, over 1 ³/16m at this track. Meets a comparable field and he can turn in a much better performance. JUSTIFICATION (2) is capable of better after finishing well back when resuming over 1 ³/16m at this track nine days ago. FOREMAN FOX (4) ended last prep with a seventh at this track over 1 ³/16m three-and-a-half months ago. Can open this campaign with a more positive effort.
