Verdict

ARTFUL MAXIMUS (4) has been right there in his first two starts and is ready to put it all together now. Murtagh should have him blending in at just the right time. GREEN SUMMER (6) has hit the line hard in his first two starts. Nearing his top now and gets a key switch in Holder, who will be desperate to have him settling closer from the low draw. HELL'S ON FIRE (11) is another that has been doing her best work late. Strips fitter third-up and will be hoping they overdo it early so she can launch late. ALIANDRA (10) stuck on soundly into the placings on debut at Gawler. Is sure to have come on from that but has the carpark draw to contest.
