Verdict

TRIPTOLEMUS (6) steps up in trip after scoring last time by a long neck over 7f at this track on August 31. Big weight drop so he is a leading contender again. CANNY HELL (2) resumed over 6f last time out and turned in a solid effort to finish third at Wagga when he was handy all the way. Won't be bothered by this longer journey and rates among the leading chances. BLAZING SWORD (1) could only manage ninth two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1m at Bendigo, beaten just 0.8 lengths. Finds a nice race and can play a big role again. DUE CALZINI (5) next best by default.
