Verdict

TAKAICHI NADAL (3) showed early speed from an outside draw and held a forward position before fading to finish fifth last start over 7 ½f at this track. Will go forward and is expected to be in the finish. GENOVA FLAVOR (7) recorded another minor placing last time out, finishing third over 7 ½f at this track when he was in the firing line all the way. Taking on a better field but he is capable of running a bold race. SWIFT MARY (6) did well to score two runs ago. Not disgraced last time out when finishing second over 7f at this track, beaten only 0.8 lengths. Key runner. VIP ARIEL (8) produced a good run two starts back to finish second but failed to live up to market expectations last time when out of the placings at this track over 7 ½f. Tackling a deeper field this time but she is up to the task.
