Verdict

BAKSHEESH (9) opened this prep with a win two runs ago but couldn't follow that up last time out when fifth over 6f at this track. Can bounce back. NOBISHIRO (10) ran fourth at his latest appearance over 6f at this track. This looks an ideal assignment. CHUO THOROUGH (12) returned from a spell with a third here then backed it up with another top-three finish three-and-a-half weeks ago over 6f at this track. Cherry-ripe and will be hard to hold out. THE GOAT (4) missed the placings last start when ninth over 6f at this track. Capable of featuring prominently.
