Verdict

FOO FOO (2) had been showing up at the trials prior to his modest run on debut as the favourite at Avondale 4 weeks ago. The whole experience was probably too much for him that day, and he will be much better for it. Follow your money and go again. MAGIC DREAMS (7) whacked away fairly well here 9 days ago, and she will be looking to tuck in somewhere early on in the run here. She has the ability to win a race like this at short notice. LONG ISLAND (10) makes her debut off the back of 2 trials wins on the bounce. She is bred to want more ground, but this field is not too strong, and she can make an immediate impact. Check the market moves. STRANGER TIMES (6) ran her best race to date at Arawa Park 2 weeks ago when finishing runner-up by just over a length. She won't have to improve by much to go one better in this.
