Verdict

ROLL THE ACES (9) settled handy the went to the front and closed the race off well to win for the second time in a row last start over 1 ¹/16m at this track, getting there by 9 metres. Can settle just behind them and wait on the sprint lane. Tackles a similar assignment and he can grab another win. MITTYS THREE ACES (2) stayed out of the early speed battle from a wide gate on the front line last start and failed to make an impact, finishing 21 metres from the winner in eighth at this track over 1 ¹/16m. Likely to get all the favours from this better draw. Meets a similar quality field and is good enough to take out a race like this. TROUBLE IN HEAVEN (8) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish third at this track over 1 ¹/16m. Genuine threat. CRIMSON ROCK (1) has drawn to advantage and should give backers a great sight.
