Verdict

DOUBLE NEEDS (4) is in good form at present. Finished fifth at his latest appearance over 1m at Newcastle, beaten 8 metres. Ideally placed and is sure to be there at the finish. ROCKNGROHL DAVE (2) is a three-year-old gelding from the Julie Henman yard on debut. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Showed some ability when a minor placegetter in a recent trial. Capable of taking this out. SUMMER PUNCH (9) is close to a win after two successive seconds, the latest over 1 ¹/16m at Canberra. Capable of taking this out. MERRYWOOD LOU (6) is worth another chance after a last-start seventh over 1m at Newcastle a week-and-a-half ago.
