Verdict

BUSTER DAN (5) was once again right in the mix last start when runner-up over 1 5/16m at this track, beaten 3.5 metres. Recent efforts are good enough to win a race of this calibre. BLACK VIPER (8) scored at this track three runs ago but has been unplaced in two subsequent runs, the latest when fourth over 1 5/16m at this track, beaten 22 metres. Tackles a similar assignment and he can give this a mighty shake. CROOKWELL EYES (6) was unplaced two starts ago then things went wrong last start when he broke and finished 21 metres away in sixth over 1 5/16m at this track. Meets a similar line up so if he behaves a big run is likely. ITS ALL RIGHT NOW (3) could only finish sixth over 1 5/16m at this track most recently. Open to improvement and is in the mix.
