Verdict

OAKIE SMOKESHOW (8) is a progressive gelding yet to miss a place. Overcame a similar barrier to this for a fresh win at this circuit and distance before drawing on the back row when runner-up in a Regional Championship qualifier at Albury last time. This race suits so he could return to the winners' list. COCOS DESIRE (3) didn't miss the top-two in a three-start juvenile campaign, missing narrowly at Listed level at this circuit and distance when last seen in December. Gets a nice draw and was readied with a trial win. Has upside and could go through her grades this time in. SNAKE OIL (10) gets the widest barrier again but has come from there for a win and a placing the last two times he raced here. Still learning but he is another with upside. KELLYS COLOURS (1) has been competitive of late and can feature again from the inside draw.
