Verdict

BODE AKUNA (2) just over three-weeks between runs when he tired in the heavy going to run seventh over 5f at Kembla Grange in BM68 class. Fitter now and assess on the good run at Wyong two-back. Suitably placed in this easier race. VOLTAGE LASS (5) showed ability in her first prep when winning two of her three starts in good style. Big drifter in betting on resumption and ran accordingly when seventh over 5f at Kembla Grange IN BM64 class. Maps well from the inside gate and the winkers go on. Hard to stop. BIVACCO (6) quickly running out of chances at his tenth race start today. Elected to go back early and offered little in the straight when seventh over 5 ½f at Bathurst. Drops in weight and expect to see him go forward. Stays in the mix along with OVERTOOK (3) who may be ready to show more third-up.
