Verdict

LILA KIITOS (1) went forward and proved too strong when resuming last time out, scoring by 3 lengths over 7 ½f at this track. Drawn to take a nice trail just off the speed and can salute again. LION NOIR (5) looks to be edging towards a win, the latest effort an encouraging second at this track over 7 ½f. Finds a suitable race and can go on to take this out. DUAL BLADE (3) was comfortably accounted for when sixth last time out over 7 ½f here after a win at this track at the previous outing. Can bounce back. LEUK PIONE (4) improved last start but found one better over 7f at this track. Another forward showing is anticipated.
