Verdict

ZOUSTROLOGY (8) has been racing in stronger Maidens and made good improvement at Eagle Farm last time. Has an awkward barrier but will likely push forward, and the in-form Ben Thompson is a key jockey switch. GRAM (1) resumed in the same contest and led before folding up badly when well supported. He'd switched from a top Victorian stable and had come off a 1.3L defeat at Caulfield Heath. Jones replaces Thompson, and she's likely to skip across and ride the speed. Has the ability and quick improvement is on the cards. BEAR OIL (5) debuts and has won his last three trials. 4lbs claiming apprentice Jett Newman sticks from the two most recent, and the blinkers are applied. Maps for a soft run and a bold effort is on the cards. VERONA GIRL (12) hasn't set the world on fire but resumes owning two Doomben trial wins. Delivered by 4L over 5f in the latest and Cejay Graham sticks from those. Jumps from the inside barrier and has to be kept very safe.
