Verdict

MAJOR SLIP UP (4) was far from disgraced from the back row last start after kicking off the campaign with back-to-back placings. Race fit now and should get his chance returning to the front line. SMIRKS LIKA BOSS (7) didn't quite perform to market expectations last time but was only 2.5m off the winner prior. Draws for a trail so is worth another chance. MACS A DUDE (1) enjoys a class drop on recent attempts at Albion Park and draws to advantage so expect big improvement. CANDYKANE (8) may need some luck from this draw but has claims off last month's win here.
