Verdict

SONIC BENDER (4) progressed nicely last time out to score by 4.5 lengths over 1 ³/16m in Maidens at Yarra Valley. The Waller-trained galloper will have taken further improvement, and McNeil stays aboard. He won't have to improve much to win again. FIRST DAY (5) is third up and stepping up from 1m should be ready to fire. She's won 3/4 over this distance, and her best numbers more than stack up. Bates renews his association with the mare. LUNAR FORCE (2) is lightly raced and promising. Followed his first-up Maiden win with a 2.5L defeat in town over 1 ?m, in stronger than this. Has the rail, but has been settling back. Has decent claims if things work out. WHICH FLOOR (6) is sure to build on his heavily bet Maiden win over 1 ?m at Terang.
