Verdict

GROVE DALE (2) finished second last start over 1 5/16m at this track, beaten 19 metres, after also filling a minor placing at the previous appearance over 1 ¹/16m here. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw and rates a big chance if anywhere near his best. ALIENFROMARMSTRONG (6) was successful last time out by 6 metres in a far better performance at this circuit over 1 5/16m. This doesn't look as hard so he is sure to prove tough to beat again. PUNTO CALIENTE (5) didn't do a bad job when fourth over 1 5/16m at this venue last time out. Can trouble the judge with any luck in running. SUNSHINE WARRIOR (7) is also in contention although the draw makes his job a bit tougher.
