Verdict

FLASH JOHNSON (9) deserves a win after placing in all five starts so far, most recently working early before pushing to the front and sticking on for a 1.6m second at Bathurst. Should enjoy a pretty soft run from this draw, with the sprint lane in play. Could break through. IMON (11) continued his consistent form when he finished fourth last start at this circuit and distance. Recorded a series of placings prior. Tricky draw but he is going well. BELLE OF BELMONT (3) draws nicely and is in the mix following a fourth at her most recent appearance at Bathurst, beaten only 2.5m. BLUFOX (4) has finished fourth in both outings here off a spell. Draws well and should be close to her peak.
