Verdict

The well-related WEEKEND ARTIST (1) (half to G3 winner and G2 placed I'm All The Talk) was okay at the Gold Coast last time out but go on the solid Sunny Coast victory two back. Has placed around this circuit and gets some well-needed weight relief with the 7lbs claim. Rates the testing material against this line-up. MONTE CARLO MISS (7) doesn't win out of turn but is usually about the money and should get a cosy run in transit from the inside marble. A must for the exotics players. CHAYSE 'N' PENNY (3) is one from one over this distance range and will be better with that first-up hit-out now in the locker. Top-three credentials. CALIFORNIA GRASS (6) brings NSW formlines to the table and any push in betting should be noted. SPOT THE AUSSIE (4) next best in a race with only a handful of chances.
