Verdict

REBEL CASTLETON (7) has some decent efforts under his belt, including a minor placing at this circuit and distance two start back. Finds a suitable assignment so could break through. SUBSTITUTE (2) broke and finished fifth when making his debut last week. He'll need to get it right but should be better for the experience so is worth another chance. NO INTENTIONS (5) is at the track for the first time. By What The Hill and hails from the Nicky Chilcott stable. Has been trialling well so has the right credentials to play a major role. TIKI (8) disappointed last time but was good when runner-up here prior so can make amends.
