Verdict

WILL IT SNOW (6) has come back a much stronger commodity this season and is well placed at this distance range. Savaged the line with a narrow third over 1 5/16m at Ipswich. Ticks plenty of boxes with the claim and can return to winning form. GLOBAL (9) second of the Laming runners who stays in the mix after his fast finishing fourth over 1 ?m at the Gold Coast two starts back. Gets a better set-up and sure to go well. VERMEER (1) unlucky not to have a few more wins on the CV. On a quick turnaround after he gripped on late to run second over 1 ?m at this track. Will relish the claim and prove hard to get past. BUSH WARRIOR (8) out of character run when he over-raced throughout and tired badly in the run when twelfth over 1 ?m at this track. Assess on earlier efforts.
