Verdict

DREAM LANTERN (5) returned in fine fashion with a solid win here and winning hoop Turner retains the ride. Will have come on with that run now in the locker and can go back-to-back to start the campaign. BOLD JULIUS (4) is one from one over this track and trip and is drawn to get the run of the race from the inside alley. Cannot be underestimated. NORTH OF ELI (3) strips fitter third-up from the break and gets a stack of weight relief with the 7lbs claim. In the mix. THE GAMBLING GREEK (7) has two wins and a second from five attempts over this six-furlong journey and looks a must for the multiples. SUPER QUICK (6) is usually thereabouts and may earn a cheque.
