Verdict

STARBURST (5) looks a nice chance. She's a handy mare who scored at her most recent appearance, getting home by 1.75 lengths over 5 ½f at this track as favourite. Still lightly raced and will be very hard to run down once more. MARGIN CALL (1) ran a good race last start to finish third over 6f at this track. Back to 5f looks to suit and he'll be rattling home with even luck. TORONADO BOOM (2) can mix his form a bit but was good when last seen, finishing third here in a similar race. Off a short break here and Damian Lane on is a huge positive. SISTINE TUNNEL (8) has been thereabouts in two runs back and should be at peak fitness now. Drawn low and has claims.
