Verdict

WAZZA (1) broke through for his maiden win over 1m at Swan Hill last time. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Looks well placed and he is a leading contender. QUEEN OF CORDOBA (10) showed good early dash and raced on the speed last start before fading to finish 1.5 lengths back in fourth over 1m at Bendigo. Well placed and expected to feature. FROZEN TIDE (15) is yet to threaten in his three runs back, continuing to leave himself with too much to do when straightening. Has been freshened with 50 days and is open to sharp improvement. SOLAR MIST (16) ran a better race last start, finishing 2.25 lengths away in fourth over 1m at Warracknabeal. Nicely placed to find some form.
