Verdict

ZOUBABY (13) tackled a Class 6 over this course and distance last start and finished off best. Still has improvement in store at just the third run of the campaign. Sure to be powering home again under just 52kgs. Track specialist TALTARNI FIELDS (4) stalked the pace then showed a nice turn of foot to score last time out over 6f here. Equally at home over this shorter trip. Yet to prove himself in open company but he is going well and looks up to the task. TOWN CRIER (11) disappointed over 6f last start but it is worth noting he has won four of four at this distance. Deserves another chance. COSMIC FIRE (5) wasn't far away first-up in the Ramornie. Second-up form isn't great which is the only knock.
