Verdict

ASHLEY FRANK (2) is back from a break of six months and looks to be right up to the mark following a recent trial win. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Well-placed to take this out. SONG OF SEAS (3) resumes here after closing her last campaign with a eighth at Ashburton Raceway on August 31. Expected to run well. KING'S COMMAND (1) disappointed last time when ninth over 1 ³/16m at this track. Can atone. PERESTRELO (5) is a three-year-old filly by Lazarus from Rosanna Jaccka on debut. Has strong trial form coming into this. Sure to prove tough to beat.
