Verdict

Big field but JUST COMET (10) is the one to beat. Has placed 2/4 so far and has been racing in far richer maidens. Placed fresh on the provincials then a handy fifth at Morphettville Parks last start. Goes close here with even luck. GRAND MILLESIME (9) was also fifth at Morphettville Parks two back then fourth last time at Mildura. This is easier and looks a definite danger. ILUSTRIOUS WARRIOR (2) has a much better record than it looks. Trialling well and is among the main chances. BRAZEN QUEEN (16) was midfield at Warracknabeal last time. Best form stacks up nicely so worth another chance despite the wide gate. NIC THE CASH (4) is worth following up after a strong run last time.
