Verdict

HYDROBOMB (2) looks the one to beat. He was excellent on the Hillside track on debut, getting home strongly to just miss before being thrown in the deep end in a G2 VRC Sires, holding his ground midfield on a tough day to make ground. Back to this company and with natural improvement, he can get the job done. OPTIMUS (6) debuted in the same race at Sandown Hillside and was well backed, just fair to the line. He can improve quickly. AUTUMN LOVER (10) looks suited rising in trip at her third start having stuck on well enough at Sale last time. KING'S ADDRESS (5) got home nicely on debut at Ballarat and should relish more ground now. He'll be hard to hold out. HAKUSAN (3) is a colt by Satono Aladdin on debut who can run well off some solid trials.
