Verdict

THREE KINGS (2) went to the paddock after scoring at his last appearance four-and-a-half months ago over 1 ?m at this track. Rates highly and is likely to be prominent. BONNY MAJESTY (10) won over 1m at this track at his most recent appearance on August 11. Expect him to play a major role. AREMPA (11) came from well back on the bend and hit the line strongly to score over 1 ¼m at this track last time out. Expected to be there at the business end. MARUKAN BLOND (14) showed little early speed then came with a powerful run to finish second last time out over 1 m at this track. Tough to stop again.
