Verdict

They'll go like the clappers in this. ARABIAN ROSE (7) goes well for hoop Brooker who has two wins and a placing from just four steers. Tuned up for this with a recent trial here and only needs some luck navigating from the sticky alley to play a major role in the finish. CHIEF IN CHARGE (10) is a consistent conveyance who is yet to miss a drum in two first-up attempts and handles all going. Should take some beating while fresh. CARRAVILLA (12) is drawn to get all the favours from the inside alley and rates a genuine top-three prospect on best form. MEET GEORGE (16) will be cherry-ripe now and looks one for the multiples. The well-related STANISLAUS (1) (half to G1 winner Golden Mile) best of the rest.
