Verdict

FONEELEVEN (4) is fitter for two runs back and not far away last time out, finishing fifth over 5f at this track when he was up on the pace all the way. The extra journey suits and looks ready to fire. BREECHES (7) was too good for a maiden field when resuming here over 5f. Progressing well so worth following up. THAT'S IT (2) turned in a sound effort again last time finishing runner-up. Back in trip this time and is overdue. Nicely drawn and looks a leading chance. IT'S BEEN A TREK (1) closed last campaign with three consecutive minor placings and is back today after a good break. Should be winding up late fresh. TSUNAMI (5) is better than the last run and capable of sneaking into the finish.
