Verdict

MAJESTIC DELIGHT (7) turned in a rather plain effort last time out over 6f but he got way too far back in the run. His prior efforts were much better and he can sit closer today out in trip and from a softer draw. DBM rides now and he can shed the maiden tag. THE CONCENTRATION (8) was too good last start at this track and trip when running on from the second half of the field. He's had a quiet trial since that effort to keep him up to the mark and he can continue his strong run of form. GALE SAGA (1) flew home to just miss at this track and trip last time out and may be able to take closer order this time around. Teetan sticks and another forward showing is expected. SPEEDY TRIDENT (2) is back in grade today and looks a big improver.
