Verdict

BUSTLING CITY (3) is on debut today and has been very impressive at the trials, with Purton on board for his past two outings. He'll remain in the saddle for his race debut and drawing out wide is a big tick for the straight course. Can make a statement on debut. LAHORE (12) dropped back to this course and distance last start and stuck on well in a good race, beaten 1.5L behind a handy type. He's had a quiet trial since that outing and if he remains at the level he showed last start, he can be in the finish once again. ALSONSO (1) disappointed when coming back to this track and trip last time out when coming back to Class 4. He pulled up with an issue there however and his last two trials have been very good. Expecting him to return to form. SILVER SPURS (10) is better than he showed last time out and has trialled well since. Can bounce back.
