Verdict

COOINDALAI (1) finished ninth last start, beaten 22 metres at this track over 1m. Has the benefit of a good draw. Perfectly placed and is sure to be there at the finish. CLASSICMAJOR (2) drew wide last start and was never a genuine threat, beaten 13 metres into eighth at this track over 1m. Won't find this any harder and from this more favourable draw he can feature in the finish. ROCKNROLL TONY (5) must be considered after he finished third over 1m at this track two weeks ago. FOR THREE REASONS (9) showed pleasing improvement last time out when runner-up over 1m at this track. Include in exotic bets.
