Verdict

MR BUBBALUSKI (3) placed at Doomben on debut when expected to need it. He has more to give and fitter is well-placed to be winning. MERCIAN (4) missed narrowly here and at Doomben following but had too much to do last time at odds and forgive. This suits better and hard-fit he's a winning chance. AQUAHOLIC (14) peaks and is racing well. He will push forward and has claims. CRACKENTHORPE (6) was a good winner at this course and distance last start and appears capable of taking that next step.
