Verdict

DON CRUNCH (4) is racing well with six top-five finishes in succession, the latest effort a second at Melton over 1 ¹/16m. Finds a suitable assignment and will prove very tough to beat once more. JUST INCREDIBLE (8) had a win at this track on July 17 before making up plenty of ground in a sustained run only to find a couple better at his latest appearance over 1 ¹/16m at this track. Gets a soft run on the inside of the second line but may need luck at some point. Big chance if he is at his best. NO GOOD REASON (1) has the perfect gate, and he is in the mix following a respectable second at her most recent appearance over 1 ¹/16m at this track. RONZEL RAFA (6) bounced back into form after turning in a better effort last start to finish second at this track over 1 5/16m. Stick with him.
