Verdict

Looks an open race to close out the card. THE EXTREME CAT (3) settled well back when 3.5 lengths from the winner in ninth over 6f at Rosehill last start. Will enjoy a sharp drop in class here so could present some value with the claim. ZAYA (11) finished 2.6 lengths away from the winner last time at this track and gets in light at the weights. Has the pace to settle in the leading division and should be involved in the finish. The well-related HOT DIGITY BOOM (2) (half to G3 winner Charge) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 6f at Townsville, beaten 2.5 lengths. Strips fitter now and should be thereabouts. OUR MISSILE (5) grows a leg for hoop Sewell who has only missed a drum once in eight steers. Has to be included in calculations.
