Verdict

TIME FOR SNOW (1) finds the maiden win elusive but it certainly hasn't been without trying. Unsure on what his best trip is yet but he did only miss by a lip here over this journey when resuming last time. Gets a key booking of Boudvillain from a good draw. Sure to be very competitive. WISER (2) missed the frame when resuming last start at Albury but wasn't all that far from the winner. Has a decent record at this trip with four minor placings from five tries and rates one of the main hopes. SNITZEL TYCOON (6) looks close to a win after finishing in the money at both runs. Has good early toe so she should be right there when they quicken. PETROULA (14) was good fresh when only beaten a head at Albury, then had excuses last time. Drawn wide but can get things back on track.
