Verdict

ROCKET ROD finally won on Turf when scoring at Doncaster. This looks less competitive and he can effectively race off a lower mark with Mia Nicholls’ allowance taken in account. Biplane landed a lower grade contest at Redcar recently but Lilikoi looks no nearer winning off her current mark. One More Dream has done all his winning on the all-weather so far and Blackjack steps up in trip.
