Verdict

IVY DIVA (5) racing in career best form and expected to make it three-straight victories. Sat off the speed before she rounded them up effortlessly to salute over 6 ¾f at this track last time out. Returns from a let-up and gets every chance from the draw. GRASSBURN (3) is on the ten-day back-up after returning to form with a narrow second to Moscow Circus over 6f at Port Macquarie. That form looks good enough for this. Go close. NEW PHAROAH (1) capable on his day and has a handy fresh record. Had mixed luck in Highway company last prep and his only trial win over 5 ½f at Scone was solid. Look for him launching late. ENSIGN PARKER (2) saves his best for this track and trip and gets the right set-up today. Failed to run on from the wide gate with a battling fifth over 5 ½f at Armidale. Drops in weight with the claim and can figure prominently.
