Verdict

TRADESMAN won over a shorter trip here before scoring again over track and trip. He beat both Socially Shady and Estrela Star in the process and should go close again. Grand Duchess Olga attempts today’s distance for the first time after scoring over 1m6f here and Ray's The One won over the same distance in June. This Ones For Fred is back up in trip with a shout off his current mark.
