Verdict

RAYGUN EXPRESS (14) returns from a lengthy spell. Failed to live up to expectations in her two runs last campaign and expected to have strengthened over the break. Given the two searching trials and can sprint well fresh. COSMIC AVENGER (3) resumed over an unsuitable trip when a fading sixth over 5 ¾f at Randwick Kensington. Looking for this distance and further now and assess on his good minor placings last time in. Each way. ZOUGOTME (6) best performance in five career runs with a solid third at this track in a Super Mdn over 6 ½f at his second run back. Finds a winnable race and represents good value. WAKING RESOURCES (5) Toronado gelding from Waking Moment on debut for the O'Halloran stable. Has shown ability in all there trials and maps well with the blinkers going on. Respect.
