Verdict

SPOT THE AUSSIE (3) has gotten better with each run this time in and looks to be building up to a maiden victory. Thompson has been in the irons for the past couple of placings and sticks here. Looks the one they all have to run down. ISLA DELILAH (5) has hit the frame at the past couple of outings and should appreciate the extra trip now. Gets some weight relief with the claim and looms as the main danger. EXODINI (1) was a touch disappointing last time out but the two runs prior were good enough for a race of this nature. Can bounce back. ROCKING FROCKS (7) will be rock-hard fit for this and may earn some minor money. BACETTI (4) next in line.
