Verdict

RAIKOKE (1) won't get many better chances than this to notch up another win. He's racing well enough in tougher company, battling on gamely for third in a BM74 last start at Sandown Lakeside. First go synthetic here but looks very well placed. BRONTE BEACH (5) ran on strongly first up here on the turf to grab third and should strip fitter. She'll take holding out. DOUBLE PI (9) struggled on heavy going last time but had been racing well prior and onto synthetic could suit from a good draw. KEANE ENUFF (2) presents third up and ready to peak. He's a winner over this track and distance which is key, respecting. WHITE HOT MAMA (4) has won 3 of her past 4 and should take catching.
