Verdict

SMART FAT CAT (10) has drawn sticky, though he rates highly on the back of his first-up effort over this course and distance 21 days ago. He'll need some luck in running, but he showed he's capable of knocking off a maiden win last time out. Looks poised to go one better now. KINGLY DEMEANOR (14) led them up last start at Happy Valley over this trip but found one better as the equal favourite. He's won twice over this track and trip and stepping up to Class 4 sees him right down in the weights. Should roll forward and take plenty of catching with no weight on his back. MR COOL (2) is racing well without winning, just missing at this track and trip when the race favourite two back. His recent trial was solid and if he gets a touch of luck from the draw, he'll be hard to fend off. VICTOR SUPREME (6) can notch up his maiden win here without surprising, with the rise in distance looking ideal.
