Verdict

MY GREEK GOD (6) returned a career-high figure two back when a barnstorming second over 1 5/16m at Goulburn. Raced midfield and was a bit one-paced last start over 1 ?m at Newcastle. Not a lot of depth to this race - he should relish 1 ½m and prove tough to hold out. MAJORIAN (1) has not raced since finishing third to Sablonneuse over 1 ¼m here five weeks ago. Given a tick-over trial since at Randwick. Finds the line well and is a threat stepping up to this distance. SABLONNEUSE (3) scored over 1 ¼m here two back then was there to win but didn't quite finish off over 1 ?m at Newcastle most recently. Will race handy and give backers a sight. SUNBURNT COUNTRY (4) has been racing well of late, albeit over shorter trips on the Canberra Acton. A few question marks today but going too well to dismiss. ANULFA (5) progressed nicely last start when in the money over 1 ¼m at Wagga at the second run back. Open to further improvement.
