Verdict

DRAGON AIR FORCE (1) has been racing at big odds, but it looks as though he's been waiting for a race like this. He wasn't fast enough over 5f last start but now out to 1 m on the All Weatrher where he boasts a good record. Blinkers go on for the first time and it wouldn't surprise to see him turn his recent form right around. BLOSSOMY (8) resumes off a CL4 win at Happy Valley, where he chased down Charming Legend and scored by a length. He's had two trials in readiness for his seasonal rewturn and Atzeni sticks from the latest trial. Can pick up from where he left off. STORMI (6) has deep 1 m form, was beaten a nose two back at Happy Valley. Won a recent trial and with his early speed, he'll give a bold sight. THRIVING BROTHERS (4) can improve with the fresh run under his belt and his step out to 1 m is a big tick. Can be in the finish once again.
