Verdict

PORT RIVER BILLIE (10) has placed four of her past five starts and looks to be in the doorstep of another victory. Graham sticks in the saddle following that last-start placing over this track and trip and rates the testing material against this line-up. BEE EXACT (5) boasts a win over this course and distance and is usually thereabouts. Can measure up against this line-up. ROYAL GLADIATOR (7) saves his best form for this distance range and will be rock-hard fit for this. In the mix. The well-related TOBA (2) (half to G3 winner Keshi Boom) gets 7lbs off with the claim and can run a race while fresh. TREASURER (3) best of the rest in an open race to close out the card.
