Verdict

ETERNALLY YOURS (5) was trending the right way before a disappointing performance over 7 ½f here as the equal fave last time out. Nottle rides now and this race looks to set up nicely for him. Up to the mile won't be an issue and if there's a better tempo on offer this time, he'll be hard to hold out. TASMAN JEWEL (8) didn't run out the trip two back before coming back to 7 ½f last time to just miss when sitting up on the speed. She was favoured by the tempo there, but she can sit handy again from a good draw and be in this for a very long way. HOT AFFAIR (9) gets the blinkers on for the first time today and Fiore returns to the saddle. She's building nicely early in her career and the rise in trip won't be an issue. Can put her best foot forward. MR FRODO (3) is better than he showed last time out and jumped favourite at Pinjarra two back. Makes plenty of appeal. SEA OF GALILEE (2) won't be far away if he can hold his recent form.
