Verdict

RACANA (9) produced a strong performance last start when she battled on bravely to just miss out over 1 ¹/16m at Redcliffe. Tackles a similar assignment and she can grab a win which would be well deserved. ITS BACK PAGE NEWS (7) was racing well before the latest appearance when she scored by 5 metres over 1 ¼m at Redcliffe. Primary contender in a similar race with a slice of luck from a potentially tricky draw. TAKE A CHANCE (5) is in the mix following a respectable second at his most recent appearance over 1 ¼m at Redcliffe and ROSIES BOY (6) also has a chance. Showed pleasing improvement last time out when third over 1 ?m at Marburg.
