    Race Analysis

    VIKING SUN (5) resumed from a lay-off last start with a sound second over 5½f at this track (Synthetic) after being prominent at the corner. Suitably placed to crack the maiden win. SAM THE SHAM (1) returns after 11 weeks in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a fifth over 5f at Delaware Park (Turf). Rates highly and is a strong chance to break through. ESCAPADES (2) ran well on debut last start to finish third over 5½f at this track (Synthetic) in a tougher race. Will benefit from that experience so he can feature again. FIRST NAVY JACK (6) is resuming from a lay-off of six months and having his first run for the M J Maker yard. Was in the placings when when resuming from a lay-off last campaign at this track (Turf) over 5f.
