Verdict

RAON THE BELMONT (1) changes rider since being well held last time in tenth over 7f at this track on February 8. Last run worth forgiving. Can atone. ECLIPSE THE QUEEN (8) finished tenth at this track and distance at her last appearance ten weeks ago. Rates highly and makes plenty of appeal. POETIC NUBI (5) failed to figure again last time over 1 ?m at this track, beaten 4.5 lengths into fifth. Expected to feature if at her best. FLYING LION (10) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 6 ½f at this track, beaten 5 lengths. Well placed and can figure in the finish again.
