Verdict
Tonkinese has race conditions in his favour and his young rider's claim is also a bonus but he's 0-16 around here and has been racing over much further. RAPHAEL had Point Reyes and Comin' Through in the places with Mutadaawel well beaten three weeks ago. That was over a mile and the placed horses were both finishing but the winner was eased down and can confirm the form. Official ratings suggest it will be difficult for anything else to get involved.
