Verdict

SIR NIPPA (11) finished ninth last start over 1 ¼m at this track, beaten 25 metres, after a modest 11th at Gunbower the run prior. May just need a bit of luck at some point from this difficult draw. Primary contender if he is at his best. MODERN JIVE (2) produced a better effort at his latest appearance, finishing second over 1m at this track. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Tackles a similar assignment and he can find the winners' circle. IAMAHUNTER (3) is in the mix at his first run since scoring over 1 ¼m at this track four months ago. SHOOBEES SPIRIT (5) is worth some thought based on his third over 1 ¼m at this track two runs ago.
