Verdict

RITUALIZE (2) is a consistent commodity who has only missed a drum once in six career outings. Has placed three of four around this circuit and gets a stack of weight relief with the 7lbs claim. Looms as the main danger. JAM PACKED (15) flew home from a long way back to win over this course and distance first-up in a very impressive performance. Rodd remains in the saddle and the form out of her fresh performance has stood up. Can repeat the dose with improvement up her sleeve. ROYAL GLADIATOR (6) was too good off a short break last start when winning by 0.8L at this track. Out to 7f is no issue and he possesses good early speed. Youngberry's claim comes in handy and he won't be far away. SIMPLY FUN (8) is better than he showed last time out and can bounce back in this easier assignment.
