Verdict

AL CORE (2) broke through for his maiden win over 7f at this track last time, scoring comfortably. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Has a low draw and he is likely to feature in the finish again. BILANCIA (5) showed good early speed last start before boxing on well and finishing second, beaten a neck, over today's trip at this track. Likely improver with winning claims. TRIQUETRA (10) was in the firing line on the corner and finished third last start over 7f at this track, beaten 4 lengths. Going up a level this time but he has the ability to mix it with them. DAISEN SIRIUS (8) finished second over 6f at Funabashi two back then missed the frame last time out over 6f at Funabashi. Should be prominent throughout. Suited here and can sneak into the finish.
