Verdict
This is a battle of the multiple track winners with BROCTUNE RED leading the way having gained his seventh victory with a six lengths success ten days ago for which he hasbeen raised 7lb. He comes here with a 4lb penalty so will take some beating. That was over this trip whereas Ron O‘s victory on the same card was over 7f though he has scored over this trip. He has been raised 3lb but carries a 5lb penalty though he holds Star Shield on an earlier success while Streak Lightning‘s three victories here have been over shorter. Outsmart won first time out here last season so should not lack fitness.
