Verdict

OUR ROKU (6) has been competitive of late with a string of close-up efforts since she came from a similar barrier to this to win at Melton. If things go her way she is up to winning a race like this. VIEW THE ART (5) scored a win at this circuit and distance two back before a good showing in a higher-graded race at her latest appearance, beaten 2.6 metres. Draws wider but this is a suitable assignment. JUST GO JOE (1) has won a trial since missing narrowly last start at Junee and scored in his lone attempt at this circuit and distance. Lightly-raced with upside and is aided by the ace draw. MIKI LOCH (4) is worth plenty of thought after overcoming a wide barrier for a last-start win by 4 metres at this circuit and distance.
