Verdict

Looks four main hopes. HALFACHANCE (1) has been racing in the south east of the state and is ready to win after two runs back. Will take catching off the inside. NEXT LEGACY (3) is also third up and looks ready to fire. Goes well at course and distance and looks weighted to feature. SHEMAKESMENERVOUS (8) got off the mark with the maiden win last time, scoring by a space. Fitter again and expected to feature. SCIALLA (5) is a three-start filly who was off the mark at her second start before finishing runner-up here last time. Has since won a trial. Has upside and can measure up. LEICA FLAMINGO (6) is going along well and rates a leading chance on best form.
