Verdict

ODEGAARD (13) is an honest commodity who has hit the frame in nine of his past ten starts and will be rock-hard fit for this. Should get a soft run in transit and looks the one they all have to run down. SKYFORGER (1) boasts a win over this track and trip and has saluted on all going. Likely to feature in the finish from the favourable draw. SIR ROCKET (15) has a solid record over this mile journey with a win and two seconds from four attempts. Good enough to take this out on best figures. TIJUANA TWO STEP (5) was a touch disappointing last time out but the three wins on the bounce prior were full of merit. Worth another chance. DIVINE OKAY (2) rounds out the selections in a race with a bunch of hopes.
