Verdict

WINNING MACHINE (6) stepped up to 7f last time out and flew home over this track and trip, beaten just 1L as the $4.40 favourite. He comes into this off a similar setup and Wong remains in the saddle. Likely to get back from the draw but watch for him flying late in the race. BLING BLING GENIUS (5) landed midfield last time out and just missed when finishing 0.8L at this track and trip. Bowman remains in the saddle and he draws much better this time around. Wouldn't surprise to see him get the job done this time around. MY FLYING ANGEL (8) steps up in trip again today after tackling Happy Valley last time out. He was solid from the back here behind Winning Machine two starts ago and his recent trial was solid. Outside draw is no issue and he can make his presence felt. ACE (1) comes back in grade today and joins the Newnham barn. Can feature in this easier company.
