Verdict

HIT THE JACKPOT (8) showed good early dash and raced on the speed last start before fading to finish 2 lengths back in fourth over 6f at Port Hedland. Rates highly and expected to go well. STAR POWER (6) improved last time out, finishing 4 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 6 ½f at Broome. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. GALAXY AFFAIR (1) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he settled well back over 6 ½f at Broome, beaten 20 lengths into seventh. Is better than that run suggests and is sure to give this a mighty shake. GIFT OF THE HEART (3) proved too strong two runs ago but couldn't follow that up last time out when 11th over 6 ½f at Broome, beaten 12 lengths. Worth plenty of thought from the low draw.
