Verdict

VONK (4) is racing well and looks hard to beat on the quick turnaround. Finished runner-up over 4 ½f at Maxwelton on Saturday and if lining up again looks hard to beat. CHIEF MONDO (7) is yet to win here but has placed 3/7 starts. Thereabouts last two and looks well placed in this small field. Gets chance for a long overdue win. REBELIOUS RED (3) returned to winning form last time at Springsure in a similar race with the claimer aboard. Has the claim again and can go on with it. BOURBON LANE (5) never got into the race last time off a wide draw. Far better than that and has the inside. Expecting a big form turnaround. HIGHGROUND (1) is racing well and looks a strong top-three chance.
