Verdict

MEGA CAPTAIN (10) was well in the market on debut last time out and ran well but found one better over 6f at this track. Will take a lot from that experience and can open the account this time. BANKER'S LEGEND (1) resumed from a spell last start with a sound second over 6f at this track. Meeting a tougher field but he is capable of a big performance. BANKER'S WARRIOR (2) is a three-year-old gelding who is having his first run for the Lim Boon Thong yard. Most recently finished in the placings at Ballarat Synthetic before going for a break. Expected to be in the finish. SKY KING (4) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when 2 lengths away in third over 6f at this track. Going well and is sure to run a big race.
