Verdict

BRAVE BONDI (2) is in good form. Added to a string of top-four finishes when coming from the back row for third at his latest appearance at this circuit and distance. Should enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Primary contender. MONTANA NIGHTS (4) recorded back-to-back Dubbo placings then drew on the second line when fourth at his latest appearance here, beaten only 3.4 metres. Could take care of this line-up. ZACHAROONI (1) should enjoy the ace draw after coming from wider last start and had produced a couple of decent efforts in higher-graded races prior. BE GOOD BENNY (5) draws a little wide but can measure up on best form.
