Verdict

NIGHT PUROSANGUE (11) bolted in over the 1 m journey last time out and rises to 1 ?m for the first time today. Teetan sticks with him following the 2L victory last start and he has enough early speed to offset the tricky draw. Can repeat the dose. YODA'S CHOICE (9) led and won last start here but jumps plenty of weight as he loses the apprentice hoop. He loves this course and distance however and Ferraris has won 2/5 when riding previously. Can find the front, dictate, and be tough to run down. CHILL KAKA (3) was no match for Night Purosangue last start when setting the tempo last time out. He loses the apprentice this time so he meets that horse worse at the weights today. Needs a bit of luck early doors but he's good enough if he runs up to his latest effort. HAPPY UNIVERSE (1) is better than he showed last time out and can bounce back to his best today.
