---|---|---|---|---|
Solid tempo set by Mr Polar and Bulsara who are both capable of leading. RUSTIC BOOM (5) didn't measure up in town at the latest effort but will find this task much easier. Strips fitter third-up from the spell and can return to the winners' stall here. PORT ERIN (7) has hit a purple patch of form this preparation stringing two wins together on the bounce and is racing with a lot of confidence. Stick with him. BULSARA (2) has been a model of consistency of late, gets 3kg off and is a winner over this track and trip. Ticks a few boxes. DEFERENTIAL (9) has a solid first-up record and may run a race while fresh. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 5,7,2,9.
