Verdict

FINAL VOYAGE (10) ran a nice race last time out, finishing second and beaten only 1.5 lengths over 6f at Dalby. Well placed with the 4lbs claim and there is no reason why she cannot find winning ways. COPPER STAR (1) has been in the placings at his last two starts, finishing third last time when he was handy all the way over 6f at this track. Finds a suitable race and can build on that solid recent form. JARDIN DE LYS (9) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 6f at Sunshine Coast, beaten 6 lengths into eighth. Finds an easier assignment and can get the job done. JE REVE (2) bounced back last start at the Gold Coast and rates highly on the back of that effort.
