Verdict

SUPER LUCK DRAGON (4) may have suffered from the dreaded second-up syndrome last time out but go on the strong Eagle Farm victory when resuming. Gets some weight relief with the 4lbs claim and should be right there at the business end. DOUBTWILLY (8) is knocking on the door of another victory with consecutive runner-up finishes and strikes a winnable contest here. Gets a jockey upgrade in the form of Thompson in the saddle and can play a major role in the outcome. MASHEAN (7) has placed three of four over this sprint journey and rarely puts in a poor one. A must for the multiples. The well-related MOAKSUN (1) (half to 3xG1 winner Asfoora) is a former Victorian having his first run for the new stable but should find this easier than what he faced down south. Respect any market confidence. FLYING SCARLETT (9) is a last-start winner who shouldn't be slept on.
