Verdict

HEDJET (3) ran well at his local debut at Seymour when just finding one better. The stable have given him a bit of time to try and find the perfect race second up and this certainly looks suitable. The formlines from his two runs in Ireland are outstanding, go close. SILKY SETH (7) presents third up having made nice improvement here second up, beaten under a length. AMBITIOUS ACHIEVER (1) resumes. He was good on debut then didn't fire behind a good one at Wangaratta. Maps well for Meech and can give cheek. TEMPERED EDGE (9) is racing fairly well this time in and looks an each way chance. TECKNOKING (8) was solid on debut and is in the minor mix.
