Verdict

A lot of these coming back from hurdling or steeplechasing which is tricky, although a few of the jumpers have scratched. On the flat, MOTIVER (6) and REDDIVO (3) bring the best form having both run in the placings in a BM56 at Geelong last time out. Motiver was third there but beaten under a length and has strong form over 1 ?m so expect he can turn the tables on Reddivo who will take holding out as well having won twice over this trip himself. GOLDEN GARDEN (8) is a class steeplechaser in great form over the obstacles. Back to flat here is the niggle but the trip suits and he should run well. EYES TO ME (9) is stuck on the 1 win from 23 starts but has been racing well and is in the mix.
