Verdict

CASHOUT (6) goes on top. He's a lightly raced 3yo who came clear late after being well backed at Geelong to take his maiden at just his second start. This is a tougher test and the draw isn't ideal but he should measure up well. DIVAZOU (2) couldn't have been much more impressive winning dominantly at Albury when last seen in a BM58, scoring by 5.5 lengths. He'll cross over and a repeat performance will see him very hard to catch. SOUND OF JURA (1) resumes off a smart trial win. He got over further last time in but can be hitting the line strongly. FAUCI (9) has claims on the placing at Mornington two back and can improve. PHOEBE BUFFAY (11) has been good in two runs back and should be ready to peak from a good draw.
