Verdict

ZAVEGA (10) ran well below her best last time over 5 ½f at Toowoomba, beaten 7 lengths into fourth at $3. Looks the runner in this field with the most upside. Will be handy despite the tricky draw and is sure to give a great sight with the 4lbs claim. ROCKY BLONDE (9) has been in the placings at her last two starts, finishing third last time when she was always up in the leading division over 4 ½f at Roma. The engagement of Stephanie Tierney is noteworthy. It doesn't get any easier but on her best form she is capable of testing her rivals. GOOD ONYA CHAMP (1) last appeared five weeks ago over 7f at Ballarat Synthetic when he finished eighth. This is his first run for the Corey & Kylie Geran stable. Has found a suitable race and any market confidence must be noted. ZOUPHISTICATE (8) finished second at Barcaldine two runs back but didn't measure up last time over 5 ½f at Carinda, finishing back in ninth. Going up a level this time but she deserves another chance.
