Verdict

GRIDLOCK (14) returned from a 14-week spell in impressive style last start, coming from next to last on the bend to take out a 6 ¼f maiden at Newcastle. Progressive three-year-old who should relish the longer trip second-up. Good enough to go back-to-back. STAR MINERVA (11) is a very fast mare who scored on debut at massive odds over 6f here, leading from the outset. Tried a repeat performance in a Class 2 over 6 ½f at Goulburn last time but found one better. Won't find this any harder and if she can control things she might be tough to catch. SUPERATA (4) came with a well-timed run to record a comfortable win over this trip at Nowra recently. Consistent gelding who is building a nice 7f record. Should be competitive again. ME ME (9) overcame difficulties to be beaten under a length in an eye-catching performance over 6f here last start. Watch for her in the dying stages. CRATHIE KIRK (7) will find this short of her best but might surprise while fresh.
