Verdict

BLUE MONDAY (10) resumes after a strong debut prep where she went down narrowly first up then stylishly broke through in December. With a Kembla Grange trial under her belt she can return with a bang. SARGEANT STAN (4) showed a sharp turn of foot here last start when arriving in time to score and although he draws wide he deserves respect. MARTY MCFLY (3) also cops a horror draw but his Ararat win was full of merit and if the tempo is genuine he will get his chance to work into the finish. FOURTHTIMELUCKY (6) is building nicely this campaign and gets in well with the 7lbs claim, making him another to keep in mind.
