Verdict

FLAME SWORD (6) ran below expectations last time at this track, finishing fifth and beaten 2.25 lengths starting at $2.80. Meeting a tougher field but on his best form he is one of the key runners. BORA BORA FLAVOR (2) doesn't boast the best winning strike rate but ran a strong race last time out, finishing third and beaten only 2.25 lengths over 1 ?m at this track when he did his best work late. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. ALEALAMIA (3) scored by 1.75 lengths first up from a spell last time out over 1 ?m at this track. Has a very good record here including two wins from four starts. Should be competitive. GALE TAKT (8) showed good early dash last start and held on well to finish a neck back in second over 1 ?m at this track. Ready to go one better.
