Verdict

BECAUSE WE CAN (8) strips fitter after two runs this campaign. Finished second last start over 7f at this track, an improvement in the first-up performance. Looks ready to win. NOVA VIA (4) was below her best last time when sixth over 7f at this track. Finds a more suitable contest and can bounce back. PALO SANTO (3) started at $5.10 last time and ran below expectations, finishing seventh here over 7 ½f. Has started two times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Finds an easier assignment and can make amends. VALLUMNOS (1) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid third at this track over 7f. Nicely placed to take this out.
