Verdict

BRISEIS ECLIPSE (7) was a most impressive winner last time over 6 ½f at Bordertown, scoring by 3.5 lengths. Returned to form and can make it two on the bounce. ELLIOTTO (4) improved at the second run back from a spell last start when missing the bob in a blanket finish at Murray Bridge. Improvement in store, sure to be very competitive. GIRLS NIGHT (6) returned from a break with a solid third last start at Bordertown over 6f when she was handy all the way. Won't be bothered by this longer journey. Right in the mix. COME ALONG JEFFREY (1) doesn't win out of turn but has good tactical speed and is drawn to advantage. Could prove hard to reel in if left alone in front. DON'T MATTA ME (9) wasn't as effective at the latest but was an eye-catcher two back at Penshurst. Keeping safe.
