Danawi gets the vote in this seller with Ockums Razor and Came Back rating the main dangers. The selection was a fair fourth in a better race behind North Fleet last time out, this looks easier and from a good draw he looks the one to be on. Okums Razor rates the main danger as he won well last time out when beating Rembrandt Quality he races off a similar mark here and he will not be far away. Came Back is another that could go well now he returns to this grade he goes well at the track and with the booking of Eddie Ahern catching the eye he should be watched in the market. Of the remainder Burhaan has the ability to go close but does not often use it and with this in mind for the winner we return to Danawi to small stakes.
