Verdict

MEGA PIXEL (7) comes here with race fitness on his side, and a win looks imminent. Closed strongly with the 130lbs when a determined third over 6f at Scone. Best figures should see him run well. DIRTY SUMMER (4) Dirty Work gelding from Summerfest on debut for the Jim & Greg Lee yard. Shown enough in the two trials and worth plenty of thought with Le Roux's 9lbs claim and the blinkers going on. Each way. DIRTY DOES IT (3) comes here with race experience and fitness fourth-up. Closed late from the sticky gate when a solid second over 5f at Taree. Expected to take a hand in the finish. HEROIC DEED (5) Farnan gelding out of Courage'n'kindness on debut for the Nathan Doyle yard. Two trials were only average and expect to see a better effort under race conditions. Tongue-tie goes on from the good draw.
