Verdict

A DRAGON FOR JOE (3) recorded a strong performance last start when he battled on bravely to just miss out over 1 ?m at this track. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. This is a nice drop in grade so he is a major player. OUR SWEET TRIXIE (4) continued a strong run of recent form and deserved her win last time out, scoring by 4.5 metres over 1 m at this track. Facing a tougher assignment but she is capable of running another big race. GOBSMACKED (8) is the next best after finishing third over 1m at Hobart last time out. SOHO TIGER LILY (2) has each way claims after finishing third over 1 ¼m at Hobart last time out.
