Verdict

KEAYANG KAUNA (10) looks close to a win after placing in both outings here since switching from NSW. Settled in the leading division and stuck on for second over this distance last week. Not drawn the best so may need a 10/10 drive but with even luck she is good enough to put herself in the winners' stall. BLACKJACK (9) made it two wins in succession at his latest appearance, scoring by 2.2 metres after taking charge a long way from home. Came from a similar barrier to this when he scored here prior. Big chance. QUIK CHANGE (6) is on the radar after a last-start fourth from the second line to follow back-to-back placings. DELIGHTFULLY SWEET (8) draws for a trail and is hard to knock having placed in all three starts since a fresh win.
