Verdict

SWIFT SOVEREIGN (4) is a promising stayer who led all the way to pick up his maiden win over 1 ?m at Eagle Farm last start. Has only raced three times and is bred to want a lot further so this new challenge looks right up his alley. ZWEIGELT (5) stepped out beyond 1 ?m for the first time recently and did a good job to hang on for second over 1 5/16m at Lismore. Has been up for a while but continues to race well. Looms as a genuine threat. CRUNCH TIME (2) stalked the pace then went home far too well in a 1 5/16m Toowoomba maiden last time out. Has not raced for 32 days which is a query but he is progressing well was pleasing to the eye in that latest win. DUNDEE TALES (3) finally found a bit of form last start and should appreciate a bit more ground at this stage of the prep. CHAYSE 'N' PENNY (1) has been poor this prep and needs to lift to be competitive.
