Verdict

NARALINGA (2) got a long way back at Horsham when resuming but found the line strongly midfield. Is sure to have come on from that and will appreciate the extra ground, though he will get back again from the horror draw. Watch for him charging late. VILLE DE LUMIERE (10) is usually thereabouts but finds it hard to win. Macredmond goes aboard and knows the mare well. Expect her to drift back from the draw and be looking to round them up. SHADDAP (4) went under as favourite last start at Wellington but that form lines up well for this. Drops back to a sprinting trip off 6 weeks in between and gets 2kgs off with the claim. Up to this. THUNDERANLIGHTNING (6) has left himself with too much to do recently but if they can utilise the inside draw this time he will prove a handful. Already a winner here.
