Verdict

SOLID CAR (3) has bumped into a couple of big winners to begin this campaign, finishing 3.3L off the winner on a wet track last time out. Third-up from a break here and this shapes similarly to last time out. Edging toward his maiden victory and looks the one to beat in this suitable contest. STRATHPEFFER (2) stuck on well on the Yielding track when only 1L off the winner after settling in a midfield position. Teetan hops on board now and his recent effort stacks right up. Can make his presence felt again. PRESTIGE COME (4) is on debut today for the Ricky Yiu stable and has trialled soundly in his past couple. Kingscote sticks from his latest outing and both the jockey and trainer are in form. Finds the right race on debut. POLAR PATCH (7) improved quickly last start when sitting closer in the run and can feature if they adopt similar tactics today.
