Verdict

MAVERICK (1) turned in another strong performance last start when he battled on bravely to finish second over 1 ¼m at this track. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Taking on a better line-up this time but he has the ability to mix it with them. START CHEERING (5) was 2.5 metres away in second at this track over 1m last start at her first run back from a spell. Meets a comparable field so she is capable of getting the job done. BIG TIME MIKI (3) is a likely improver after debuting with a solid third last time out over 1m at this track. KELLYS COMMOTION (10) is a two-year-old filly by Downbytheseaside from My Bettor Lady on debut. Won't spend a penny from this draw but luck may play a role on the bell lap. Placed in a recent trial. Has the right credentials to play a major role.
