Verdict

DOUBLEFAULT (9) performed well again last start, going back from a wide draw before making up plenty of ground but finding one better. That was his third successive runner-up result at this circuit and distance so he deserves a win. With even luck from the back row he can get the job done. ILLBERIDINGSHOTGUN (1) resumes from a spell of three-and-a-half months after placing in all three starts of the maiden campaign. May have developed since last seen in June and gets the ace draw so expecting a bright start to the campaign. RESERVED FOR ME (6) draws wider but is open to improvement after debuting with a solid third here last week. CHERRY SURPRISE (2) has been freshened since tackling the QBred Triad 2F Final and was runner-up in her only other appearance.
