Verdict

APOLOGY ACCEPTED (10) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 8 metres from the winner in third over 1 5/16m at this track. No favours expected from this draw. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he is up to the challenge. PUNTO CALIENTE (1) is in good form at present. Finished second at his latest appearance over 1 5/16m here, beaten only a nose. This is a nice drop in grade so he is a major player. NEDS BEACH (7) must be considered after he finished runner-up over 1 ?m at Globe Derby Park six days ago. Should find this a touch easier. LOVE TO DEAL (2) showed pleasing improvement last time out when third over 1 ?m at Globe Derby Park. Include from the favourable draw.
