Verdict

MARK OF ZORRO (8) hit the frame two starts ago here but ran below par last time when seventh over 6f at this track. Worth another chance. SEIRAN KUROFUNE (1) was racing well without winning, finishing in the money on two consecutive occasions, before finishing fourth last time out over 6f at this track. Settles back early but winds up late. Could prove tough to beat. GANDIVA (4) settled well back last start and never threatened when seventh over 1 ¹/16m at this track. Has her share of talent and finds a suitable race. TIMELESS (5) finished tenth at her most recent outing over 6f at this track. Looks to be in the right race to figure in the finish.
