Verdict

WAVERLEY (6) gets top billing after a luckless first-up fourth in a BM62 at Gold Coast, where he began slowly and was held up near the 2f before closing off strongly. He's won at the mile and handles wet ground, so the rise to this trip looks a positive second-up. CASTAWAY (3) is the obvious danger after justifying favouritism here three weeks ago when making a mess of his maiden rivals. Thompson sticks from a good draw and the rise in trip shouldn't bother. FIFTH FORCE (4) has to rebound from a plain run at Ipswich, yet his previous CL3 third at this venue had merit after he was held up, and his distance record is strong. Can bounce back on the quick turnaround. BOSSIRI (12) closed well for third here two weeks ago in CL1 company. Worth respecting but she's yet to prove useful on rain affected going. Treading cautiously.
