Verdict

BANGKOK HOTTIE (10) exciting Too Darn Hot filly who closed strongly in the G3 Kindergarten on debut, then went on to win her next two starts in dominant style. Back without a trial and has the class to overcome a wide gate and progress quickly this prep.TWINKLING STAR (11) returned from a lengthy spell with a slashing win from back in the field over 5 ½f at Hawkesbury with the 128lbs. Held in high regard by the stable and looks set for a big campaign. MELANITE (9) closed strongly in his two runs back with the big weights and ready for the 5 ½f. Savaged the line when third over 5f at Gosford on a heavy (9) track. Maps well and not to be underestimated. COSY CORNER (7) drops in trip for this after she failed to run the 7f out when fifth at Newcastle. Drops 13lbs in weight today and can make amends at the good odds. CENTURY SONG (3) mixing his form and comes here in peak condition. Place best.
