Verdict

SURENESS (8) comes here off a break of six-and-a-half months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 6f at this track. Capable of playing a major role. MAJOR CROWN (2) hit the frame when resuming two runs back at this track but couldn't back it up last start when seventh, beaten 10 lengths, over 7f at this track. Nicely placed to make amends. GWANAKSAN RICKEY (11) was in the firing line on the turn and finished second last start at the first run back from a spell over 6f at this track, beaten 4 lengths. Placed to advantage and can take this out. RAON ECLIPSE (4) has not won for a long while. Last raced on February 1 when beaten 11 lengths into eighth at this track over 6f after being handy for much of the way. Well placed and can run a better race.
