Verdict

BOND GIRL (8) had put the writing on the wall with back-to-back placings before she delivered last time out at Geelong, racing parked before scoring by 4.3 metres. Draws on the back row but was runner-up from this barrier three back. With even luck she can keep the ball rolling. THE REGULATOR (6) made an encouraging return when runner-up at Geelong then drew on the second line and settled back in the field at his latest appearance but worked home in good style to register a game win by a head at Charlton. In form and could salute again. APOLOGY ACCEPTED (9) is close to a win after two successive placings at this venue, one of them from this row when he missed by a nose. THE IRISHMAN (3) is worth some thought aided by a good draw.
