Verdict

MASTER LUCKY (14) won at the end of last campaign before a strong return at the top of the weights in C4. Nice trial between runs and he drops a whopping 17lbs for the rise in grade. He rates highly on his recent form, he'll roll forward and be tough to catch with no weight on his back. AEROVOLANIC (3) appeals as the immediate danger after a second here when only 1.3L off the winner when fresh. The in-form Yuen hops on board from a favourable alley and with the fresh run out of the way, he can get the job done. CHILL BUDDY (1) was solid on resumption at this track and steps out to 7f for the first time. Form either side of the break has been great and he won't be far away. SUPERB SPIRIT (7) resumes with strong overall figures and Zac Purton aboard, with his 6f form good enough if he carries it to this longer trip.
