Verdict

SAINT FOX (9) ran a strong race on debut here over 6f when boxing on gamely despite being a bit tight for room late, finishing third with improvement to come. The rise in trip should suit this son of Frankel much better and he'll be very hard to beat for strong connections. TALKIN' STERN (5) resumed with a good run at Sale over this trip, pulling up with excuses despite a solid fourth. Fitter and drawn well, he should take holding out. DIESEL DESMOND (1) resumes. Two runs in his maiden campaign were sound, D Lane booked here is a good lead and he should run a forward race. JUST LIKE JAGGER (3) has just found one better in both starts and did go around $1.50 at Mildura, he'll take holding out.
