Verdict

GRAND MILLESIME (14) returns and makes her stable debut for the Clarken camp. Shoulders figures over the border that line up strongly for this and her two trials in readiness suggest she's going well. Expecting a bright start in the new colours. STREET LEGAL (7) gave a bold sight here fresh but was run down late. Fitter now and should be able to spear across from the draw to give cheek. POWER DANCER (5) just missed as fav when resuming on the Parks track. Better with that run under the belt and is worth some thought. TORPEDOES (17) was well below his best last time and has since been freshened. Races best out in front, so expect them to hunt the front.
