Verdict

LONGCHAMP LAD (3) is sure to be very competitive third-up after he just missed last time, beaten a nose at Port Macquarie. Backmarker who gets home hard. Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake. LIBERTY CALLS (12) went better than her form reads on debut, only beaten 2.7L. Is sure to have come on from that and can play a major role. AIRBURST (7) has been in the placings at her last two starts, finishing third last time over 6 ½f at Gold Coast. Strips rock-hard fit and is likely to be about the mark again. FOXY PRAGUE (5) has built nicely into this campaign and should be hitting his straps now third-up. Draws well and is among the winning chances.
