Verdict

LOOK TO DA STARS (6) finished 13th last start over 1 ?m at this track, beaten 390 metres, after a good third at this track the run prior. Finds a nice race and can make amends. YOUNEVERKNOW (11) scored at the first run back from a layoff last start over 1 ¹¹/16m at Cambridge Raceway on June 19, finishing half a metre ahead of his rivals. Leading hope in a similar assignment. VISCOUNT MACKENDON (4) is flying at present with two successive wins to his name, most recently at this track two weeks ago. Big chance to keep the ball rolling. TACTICAL APPROACH (2) is next best and gets every chance from a favourable draw.
