Verdict

CLASSIC ELEGANCE (6) turned in a poor effort by her standards most recently when 21 metres away in tenth over 1m at this track. Form prior to that had been solid. Finds a nice race and can make amends. BANKSY (4) settled handy and finished well to finish third last start over 1 ?m at Goulburn, that result coming on the back of some very consistent lead-up efforts. Meets a comparable field so he can add to the impressive recent efforts. OOGA CHAKA (9) resumes from a spell. Last appeared when a modest seventh over 1m at this track three months ago. ROCLEA IMAGE (10) is in the mix following a fourth at his most recent appearance over 1m at this track.
