Verdict

SMART CITY (9) sat handy and proved too good over this course and distance, bolting in by 2.5L. He's trialled quietly since then and while he has drawn wider, he can roll forward and repeat the dose. Hard to ignore his latest effort and can bring up back-to-back wins. CAPITAL LEGEND (1) got the job done well two back before a 0.8L defeat last start in a strong performance. Wong's claim comes in handy and the apprentice is in white hot form. Can land in a good position and get back to winning ways. OUR LUCKY GLORY (5) finished behind Smart City last start here when beaten 2.8L but he does get a big weight swing in his favour. He's 0/8 at this trip, but his recent form suggests he's not far away. Can be in the finish again. GLORIOUS JOURNEY (2) is better than he showed fresh and can improve second-up.
