Verdict

KASH FUND (3) is racing well having finished within 3m of the winner in both outings since he led from a similar draw to this and scored a 5.7m win at this circuit and distance. Expect him to push forward from this barrier. Could be hard to catch. BOULEVARD BART (2) faded badly as a hot favourite here last week but did have to work. Had made a winning return at Wagga prior. Should enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position so is worth another chance. CHERRIES ON TOP (5) has been freshened since she only beat a couple home in the Breeders Classic 3F Final but had scored a resuming win prior. RACANA (6) turned in a better effort to finish third here last start and will be race fit now.
