Verdict

TURBO SAINT (3) looked good winning on debut as favourite here, proving too strong up on speed to score by a length. He can only improve off that and maps for every chance again. Can keep the ball rolling. SHAADRILLE (5) is another off a debut win, too tough at Moe after copping some interference. He draws well and can measure up. LADHAR (8) is a well-bred filly who was solid fresh at Mornington and can improve having shown ability last time in. HOME TOMURRA (4) resumes. He was last seen running in the G2 Sires Produce at Eagle Farm without measuring up but this suits much better. LES BRAVES (1) resumes with each way claims.
