Verdict

WILL HE PIKE (8) registered another strong performance last start when he battled on bravely to just miss out over 1m at this track. Drawn to enjoy an economical run and might sweat on the sprint lane. It doesn't get any easier but on his best form he is capable of testing his rivals. MISTA EAGLE (9) maintained the recent momentum at his latest appearance when he scored by 6 metres over 1 m at Launceston. Tackles a similar assignment and he can make it two on the trot. IMPERIAL LAZ (3) finished fifth last start over 1 ¼m at this track. Generally runs very well at this circuit so can play a big role. MONTGOMERY BURNS (5) is better than his last-start run for seventh over 1 m at Launceston would suggest. Worth another chance.
