Verdict

VOLTAIN (10) has been knocking on the door for a while and went close again last time, finishing second to make it three straight placings at this circuit and distance. Starts from the mark this time but could break through. IGNITE (6) is racing consistently having put together a string of top-four finishes, the last three from this same handicap. Major player. ITZ TRIXTON TIME (9) is heading the right way, improving last time out to come from this handicap and finish third at this circuit and distance. CROOKWELL EYES (3) is capable of featuring in the first four.
