Race Overview
OZAT (6) is showing plenty of talent and has already competed in strong feature races. His last start was a winning one at this track over 1700m in March and he is confidently selected to follow up. OCEAN VIKING (8) runs for Godolphin and has done very little wrong thus far. Strong each way chance. GAMESTARS (2) never shone last time when near the back of the field in a Listed race and can be expected to do way better in this class. HYPERCORE (4) is in winning form and can continue on these ways.
Selection:
6 - 8 - 2
