Verdict

SHARP INTEREST (9) hasn't raced since the Tatlow Stakes last October but had good form prior including a win three back at Charlton. Draws on the back line but finds a winnable assignment first up. YANKEE GAMBLER (6) put the writing on the wall last time with a 1.5m second at Geelong. Back on the front row. Has winning claims. ITTAKESLUV (4) draws better than last time and came from this barrier to lead and win two back at Kilmore. Owns a good record at this distance. Major player. MAJOR ASSASSIN (8) came from this barrier to win last start at Maryborough. Go well again.
