Verdict

SO BE INSPIRED (9) deep into the preparation and the winkers go on for the first time. Just under three weeks between runs when back in trip for a plugging fourth over 5 ¼f at the Gold Coast Poly. Regular rider goes back on and strips fitter now. No excuses here. ENHANCE (1) consistent gelding who should have a few more wins on his CV. Sat on the good tempo with the 133lbs when a fighting second over 5f at the Gold Coast. Claim helps and shapes as a top three prospect. PRESTIGE PAK (8) registered his first win at start five with a slick on-speed performance over 5f at this track. Has plenty of scope for improvement and can win again. ON POINT PIXIE (3) back in grade as favourite when a sharp 5 len win over 6f at Lismore. Gets a similar set-up and can go on with the job.
