Verdict

MATT DAN (1) is at the track for the first time. By Poster Boy and hails from the powerhouse Victorian stable of Emma Stewart stable. Solid at the trials and is well served by the ace draw. Sure to be well educated so can kick off with a win. FIT AND READY (2) was a well-beaten second on debut then produced a very good effort last week at this circuit and distance, finishing third and less than 2 metres from the winner. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run and a win looks imminent. HARRY THE HAT (4) must be considered after he improved at start number two and finished runner-up here last week. Poster Boy filly WALK WITH ELEGANCE (5) has been trialling well and should be kept safe on debut.
