Verdict

ACCELERE (3) has been racing very well and deserved his success last time out, scoring by 1.3 metres over 1 5/16m at this track. Has the benefit of a good draw. Facing a tougher assignment but he is good enough to cope. FLAME BLASTER (6) finished third last start over 1 5/16m here, beaten 9 metres, after also filling a minor placing at the previous appearance over 1 ¹/16m at this circuit. Primary contender if things go his way. HALF PRICE BRIDE (5) is worth another chance after a last-start tenth over 1 m at Shepparton six-and-a-half weeks ago. Can bounce back. YELLA (2) must be considered after he finished third over 1 ¹/16m at Riverina Paceway two weeks ago. Include from the low draw.
