Verdict

SURPRISE HONEY (12) had been a shade disappointing until last time out when she dominated a Class 6 field over this track and trip. Nicely drawn and although the weights aren't as kind today she is a chance again with the confidence back. BRAVEHEART (6) made it three wins from his last four starts when he thrashed subsequent winner Blazing Harry over today's journey at Doomben recently. May have to do a bit of work from a tricky gate but he is going well enough to salute again. COSMO CENTAURUS (4) started favourite but settled back and was never a factor in the Surprise Honey race when resuming last start. Can do a lot better. OUROBOROS (5) is racing well but a win has been elusive. Each-way prospects.
