Verdict

MOONRAKER gets another chance having missed the break over track and trip last week and finishing a place behind runner-up Samovar. But he beat the latter here before that and Scott Dixon’s charge has subsequently missed the break himself when well beaten over 6f at the track just four days ago. Astro Jakk has won over 6f on the Fibresand though found Samovar too good here last month while Cappananty Con finished ahead of Warrior's Valley when placed over the minimum trip at Lingfield and Robot Boy hasn’t raced since August.
