Verdict

SUNSET SESSION (1) was very good on debut at Pinjarra down the straight, finishing in 0.7L off the winner when debuting in Saturday company. He's since trialled nicely coming in at Belmont and he maps for a lovely run from the inside draw. Ticks plenty of boxes and can resume on a winning note. TENNESSEE SPIRIT (7) was heavily backed on debut when bumping into a smart one before going back last time out and never really looking likely. Back to 5f now, but where she gets to in the run could be an issue. No doubt she has class though and rates highly on what she's done thus far. DUST ASIDE (2) bumped into Rostislav on debut when not disgraced and his two trials this time in work have been impressive. He has good early speed and it wouldn't surprise to see him return with a bang. WHY SHE STAYED (6) just missed over 6f here last start and has to be included. FROSTLAND (10) will find this easier than her debut effort and won't be far away.
