Pace looks to be genuine with The Coolakin King and Bigdayonit matching motors in advance of Corn Cob and Keytrade. Modest race where the main chances got hammered by Aardvark here last time. THE COOLAKIN KING (2) was a good fourth fresh then drew wide and was caught deep throughout, finishing seventh in the Aardvark race. Much better draw this time and Cheung is back aboard having racked up three wins on him already. Won only try over course and distance and gets his chance to atone. URBAN WARRIOR (8) was fourth fresh then fourth in the Aardvark race. Is a third-up winner and looks suited by the extra trip. IRONCLAD BOY (6) is another from the same race and was beaten a long way in a run well below best. Runner-up the start prior and can bounce back. DEAL OBTAINED (5) is fitter and can improve sharply, while CORN COB (1) wasn’t too far off the mark last time. Solid prospects from the low draw. SUGGESTED PLAY: The Coolakin King can atone.
