Verdict

Stakes placed filly CHISHOLM (9) returns from a 170-day spell. Has had a stop-start career but shows plenty of ability. Set out favourite at all four runs, filling placings three times - all when fresh from a spell. Trialling in very good style and might be ready to put it all together now. FILTHY (2) debuts on the back of a couple of recent jump-out wins at Cranbourne. Has shown good ability there and looks primed for a bold first-up effort. Appears the main danger. FOXLAND (3) may have had a little issue on debut so suspect that played a role in the disappointing performance there. Fitter for a couple of jumpouts coming into this and it wouldn't surprise to see him right in the finish on his return. I AM POPULAR (10) had an issue prior to the break so forgive that run. Can return on a positive note.
