Verdict

SNEAKY PHILTRA (7) was ultra-impressive at her latest appearance over 1 5/16m at this track, scoring comfortably by 19 metres after taking control of the race a fair way from home. Should enjoy a nice smother from this draw and will be looking for a split at some stage. That latest effort is good enough to put her right in the finish. KEAYANG CRIPPA (2) resumes here after closing his last prep with a fourth here on March 27. Capable of playing a major role so has to be respected. APOLOGY ACCEPTED (9) is the next best after finishing runner-up over 1 5/16m at this circuit last time out. One for the multiples. BETTER BLUE BOYS (3) last appeared when eighth over 1 ¹/16m at Swan Hill seven months ago. Expect a better effort to kick off this prep.
