Verdict

ERIN GO BRAGH (6) went off the boil after finishing second fresh up in the spring, and he will be resuming at an easier level. A recent trial win suggests he is back to the good form that he showed earlier in his career. The pole position makes him the one to beat for us. BRAZEN AFFAIR (2) is a poly track specialist who will be close to her peak fitness third up from a spell. Opie Bosson gets on well with her, and despite her wide gate, she can go close to winning this, even on the turf surface. GRINZINGER MOON (12) makes her NZ debut after showing plenty of talent in Australia. She has trialled up well recently, and she has won fresh up in the past. Follow the market leads. SISTA SUGAR (10) has been battling lately, but she has reunited with Masa Hashizume, and she can do better. Include. MIDORI GLORY (7) toughed out a good win at Matamata last start, and a handy draw helps in this. Freshened, and he has top 4 claims again.
