Verdict

WHIRLWIND WILBUR (7) is racing well having only once missed the top-two in his last seven starts, winning three of those. Kept the ball rolling last time when 3.2 metres from the winner in second and starts from the same mark. Top chance. VOLTAIN (3) is racing consistently. Finished fourth at her latest appearance and recorded a string of placings prior. Can be in the finish again. ALADDIN SANE (10) must be considered after he finished third from this handicap here a week ago. MORE SURPRISES (11) goes back in the handicap but must be respected after scoring last start by 3 metres at this venue.
