Verdict

MASTER ZOUS (5) was brave in defeat two back at Canterbury then went mad in front last time out and fell away in the run home, again at Canterbury over 6 ¼f. Has superior credentials and should be winning if he settles better today. FEARN TRICK (7) for Gai and Adrian is back from a 19-week spell. Raced twice in the maiden prep and was just outside the placings on each occasion at the provincials. Three recent trials should have her wound up for this. SAVANNA GOLDEN BOY (10) filled a placing for the first time when runner-up over 6f at Gosford recently. Nicely placed over an extra furlong and back a little in class. Capable of taking this out. ZECCHINI (6) caught the eye last start when she chimed in late and was beaten under a length over 6 ?f at Muswellbrook. Consistent filly who is ideally placed to play a big role. ALMONZO (1) resumes. Showed ability in the maiden campaign, albeit on wet tracks. Market the best guide.
