Verdict

POCKET DIAL (11) did a great job to finish fourth in the Nutrien Classic Sales 2CG Final at Listed level here last week. Went into that series off back-to-back wins, one at this circuit and distance and the other from this barrier at Young. He'll enjoy the class drop. TEDDY LOU (10) opened his career in the best possible manner a week ago, coming from a wide barrier and scoring by more than 6 metres at this circuit and distance. Draws on the back row but has upside so could take the next step. ESTELLA HERGE (2) is a lightly raced filly who was a big improver when fourth in the Nutrien Classic Sales 2F Final last week. That was just her second start so he has scope for further progression and she draws well. GAME SET MATCH (7) is a colt by Three Over Three on debut. Must overcome a very wide draw but has strong trial form coming into this, easily winning his latest hitout.
