Verdict

VOSTOKOVA (13) was a dominant winner here fresh and then turned in another good effort at Ipswich. Fitter and rates a leading contender. BRUTAL MISS (8) couldn't justify the short quote first-up at Grafton but did warm into it nicely late. Fitter and can get the job done this time with Heywood sticking. MA'S EPIC (9) was well below her best last start at Toowoomba but her first two runs of the prep stack up nicely. Will appreciate the added trip and gets in well with the 4lbs claimer engaged. Can bounce back sharply fourth-up. TRYANZA (7) has been thereabouts since resuming and should be hitting his straps now fourth-up. Drawn cosy and deserves inclusion.
