Verdict
Canzone won here earlier with a below par KRAKEN POWER behind. But Jim Goldie’s charge bounced back with nose defeat over track and trip earlier in the week and beat Nellie French when scoring here last month. The latter has subsequently finished runner-up again while both Gowanbuster and Kath's Toyboy drop down in distance with the former preferred.
