Prince Sonic should lead at a strong tempo. OVERACTIVE (7) ran a good race fresh at Sandown Lakeside, starting hard in the market when beaten half a length by the talented Sunshineinmypocket. Fitter for that, Shinn goes on and he just needs to settle him midfield to prove very hard to hold out. BETTER LINK (6) was a narrow winner fresh, sticking on fairly well behind Sunshineinmypocket last time. He should get a nice run just behind the pace here and take beating. EXCESS (9) found form last time with an all-the-way win here. This is harder but she can give cheek. DUEL VENTURE (11) is racing well and should be thereabouts again. SUGGESTED PLAY: Overactive to win.
