Verdict

THE CHAMPION (4) kept fresh for this after racing well on the provincial circuit. Just under six weeks between runs when taken to the front for a tenacious third with the 130lbs over 7f at Kembla Grange. Kept up to the mark with a trial win over 5 ?f at Warwick Farm. Can overcome the sticky gate in this very weak Maiden. LAST TOUR (3) dropped in grade with an improved fourth in the small field over 6 ½f at Goulburn. Maps well again with the claim and expected to go close. HIGHWAY ROBBERY (2) will be rock-hard fit now after he had genuine excuses from the wide gate when a fast-finishing fourth at Moruya in a Super Maiden. Can settle much closer and take a hand in the finish. ARGANTORATI (6) her two runs back have been better than they look and should appreciate the extra trip today. Can surprise at the good odds.
