Verdict

LIVE WIRE (6) bounced back to form last start when out to 6f for the first time, sticking on stoutly from on the speed to be just 0.3L away. Purton remains in the saddle and he's a lightly-raced gelding on the rise. He'll be better for that effort again and with more improvement expected, he'll be hard to run down. CALL ME SUCCESS (7) comes through a good form race last time out where he finished off nicely to be 2L off the winner at the finish. He'll be spotting Live Wire a head start, but he moved well in a recent trial and with his upside, he looks a big threat. INCREDIBLE MOMENT (12) finished seventh two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 6f at this track, beaten a nose. Likely improver with strong prospects. YEE CHEONG GLORY (2) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a fourth over 6f at this track. Placed to advantage so expect a bold run.
