Verdict

FLASHBACK TIME (10) won well fresh before settling further back last start and never featuring in a CL1 most recently. Martin's claim comes in handy and they may look to settle a touch closer this time around. Can get back to winning ways. VERY SIRIUS (9) was a scratching earlier this month with an issue, though her form prior was very good, jumping favourite at this track. Will need some luck from the barrier, but her form is good enough and if she's over the issue, she'll be hard to fend off. ABSTRUSE (4) missed first-up at Moruya in a good effort. Well placed out to this trip second-up and can't be discounted. DEEKAYGEEBEE (5) has claims.
