Verdict

The World's Best Sprinter KA YING RISING (1) has history on his fingertips, with a chance to break the great Silent Witness' record with 17 wins in-a-row. He draws beautifully and there's nothing in this race he hasn't beaten previously. 7f is no issue, he proved that in this race last year, and he can create history. HELIOS EXPRESS (3) was better in the Centenary Sprint Cup last start when runner-up there, but only 1.3L off the winner. He's had a nice trial since and out to 7f can see him be in the finish once again. LUCKY SWEYNESSE (2) got his mojo back last start out to the mile with a strong performance at big odds. He's won 3/4 at this track and trip and the inside draw should see him near the speed. Can feature on the back of his latest effort. GALAXY PATCH (5) gets the blinkers back on today and can bounce back to form.
