Verdict

NONIS GOLD CLASS (3) has the hoof on the till after seconds in her past five outings at this circuit and distance. Has started a hot favourite at her last couple but manners have let her down so she'll need to get it right. If she does she can break through. BLACK VIPER (4) kicked off his campaign with three placings before taking advantage of Nonis Gold Class's error to break the maiden at this circuit and distance last week. Starts from the mark this time but could go on with it. AFRICAN GALA (5) galloped out last week but has claims off a win at this circuit and distance prior. THE RED MENACE (2) is next in line.
