Verdict

FLYWIRE (7) took advantage of the good draw and raced on the pace last start before tiring to finish fourth at Goulburn. Will go forward and is expected to be in the finish. LET'S GO BRANDON (2) returns in the new colours of the Backhouse yard and is a handy type on his day as a relatively lightly raced 6YO. Was sent around fav in both starts last campaign without striking but was far from disgraced. Boudvillain's booking adds confidence he can make a bright return. PARTHENOPE (4) returns after a year spell and looks ready following a Canberra Acton trial win. Drawn to enjoy a good run on the speed. One of the main contenders. FAERYWOOD (6) has put together back-to-back placings after scoring three back at Sapphire Coast. Suitably placed so anticipating him to make his presence felt. DAWN ON ME (3) boasts a fitness edge and has good tactical speed. Could steal it if left alone.
