Track: Good 4 Weather: Showers

Docklands is a quality runner and wasn’t too far off the finishing pack behind Via Sistina last time out which is huge form for this. Territory Express bombed the start and should have won. Big hope in this field. Iknowastar beat Territory Express last time out but convinced the latter can turn the tables. Attrition is always capable of bobbing up at odds.

1. Attrition (5)

Can bob up at odds and form is good enough for this. Drawn well from the barrier and will give this a shake.

2. Desert Lightning (20)

Can’t have.

3. Lindermann (10)

Won well last start and can settle midfield from the barrier. Capable in a race of this depth.

4. Rediener (12)

Can’t have.

5. Pericles (16)

Loves racing here and best efforts are good enough to give this a shake but the barrier does make things tricky. Worth thought despite the draw.

6. Osipenko (18)

Can’t have.

7. Amor Victorious (15)

Prefer others.

8. Yellow Brick (14)

Maps sticky but good enough for these. Where it lands to from the draw is the problem.

9. Docklands (3)

Far from disgraced when bumping into Via Sistina last start and wasn’t far off making the placings. If replicating that form is well and truly in the mix.

10. Iknowastar (1)

Clung on from the lead last start in a gritty win. Drawn barrier 1 so expect it can head straight to the front and take beating.

11. Territory Express (7)

Bombed the start last time out and flew home to just miss. Should have won and just has to tidy up its manners to go very close in this.

12. Freedom Rally (11)

Can’t have.

13. Relentless Voyager (8)

Prefer others.

14. New Endeavour (19)

This looks too tough.

15. Major Beel (9)

Leaning to others.

16. Kingswood (6)

Looking for three straight and maps well from the draw. Hard to oppose in its current form.

17. Strait Acer (17)

Can’t have.

18. Holymanz (2)

Prefer others.

19. Sounds Of Heaven (13)

This looks too tough.

20. Magnaspin (4)

Leaning to others.
