Verdict
SANTANOVA (2) scored over this trip fresh up from a wide gate but couldn’t handle the longer distance last time, finishing sixth here nearly 3 weeks ago, again from a wide gate. She is better placed over this trip and is worth another chance. MAGNIQUE (3) was up near the lead and fought on well last start to finish runner-up over 1200m at this track 19 days ago after finishing fourth here the run before. Stick with her. AMAROO STAR (4) didn’t fire in his last run before a spell on July 26, finishing fifth and 5 lengths away over 1200m at Belmont. He has won 3 of his 4 starts on this track, and with William Pike in the irons, he will be hard to hold out. KING CARTEL (1) scored by nearly a length 3 runs ago at Albany and has since placed twice there. He can hold his spot handy to the pace here, and another honest effort can be expected. ANABALLISTIC (9) was beaten by a wide gate last time out. She has the pole position here and is another not to be overlooked. Each-way value.
