Verdict

MONDAY MELODY (1) has not gone a bad race this time in over his four runs. Course placed. One to beat no matter the footing on offer here. NOBLE BOY (3) has raced well since his Maiden win here four starts ago. Quinella and trifecta must in this. INVESTIGATE (5) is much better than he has shown so far this time in. Has placed before third up. Not out of this. CRYSTAL FALLS (6) is fresh up here back in grade. Has been course placed before. Drawn to be a hope in this. ELTON ROCKS (4) he is a course proven runner. Hard to beat in this second up. The gelding handles it dry and wet too.
