Verdict

BORNINASTORM (6) absolutely bolted in at debut and she was very impressive overall. Wide gate. Won too easily to not think a repeat was on the cards. MARACATU (5) is an improver on his fresh-up run. Easier here. Speedy type. Top tier must in this for multiples bettors. KAI MOANA (7) was a close-up third at her second run this time in. Drawn well again. Trifecta and first four chance in this line up. GOHUGO (4) has been placed in three of four starts here. Drawn wide in this field. He can handle dry and wet ground. In the mix here. DISCOVERY BAY (3) was not too bad a run fresh up. Improver. Ace gate. Placed in both of his course runs.
