Verdict

INDI SPRINGS (12) nice filly who can keep raising the bar. Speared across from the wide gate and never headed with a slick victory over 6 ¼f at Gunnedah as fav. Down sharply in weight and this is no tougher. Top chance again. SPRING PROSPECT (14) failed narrowly first-up when she savaged the line for a close-up second over 5 ½f at Dubbo. Ready for this trip and gets her chance from the good barrier. COOL SPACE (7) best performance of the campaign when he ran on late to secure third over 5 ½f at Dubbo on the heavy (9) surface. Keep safe. SORRENTO PALACE (11) drops in weight for this and strips fitter after having to work hard from the wide gate before fading to run seventh over 5f at Warren. Deserves another chance.
