Verdict

INSIDE PASSAGE (6) finally shed the maiden tag in town last time out and winning hoop Thompson sticks in the irons. Has placed three from four around this circuit and only needs some luck navigating from the sticky draw to be playing a major role in the finish. EMPIRE OF ART (4) just ran into one better at Ipswich when resuming and will have come on with that run now under the belt. Should get a cosy run in transit from gate three and with prove hard to hold out. FIFTY CALIBRE (8) boasts a win around this circuit and must be respected out of the Bruce yard. Top-three aspirations on best form. LET'S DO IT AGAIN (2) strips fitter third-up from the break and gets some weight relief with the 4lbs claim. Ready to show his best now. WANDA'S OUTLAW (12) goes well for rider Stewart who has two wins and two placings from just six steers. May earn some minor money.
