Verdict

JASON DARREN (1) comes here in great order fifth-up and expected to go close with the visors going on. Sat on the strong tempo when nailed late to run second over 7 ¼f at Muswellbrook in BM58 grade. Will relish Johnston's 7lbs claim again and no excuses today. ZOUCRATIC (2) third-up today and ready for the 7f. Has run on strongly at his last two outings over the 6f. Back in class and has placed at this trip. Top-three contender. OVERZONE (6) smart debut winner, then sat on the pace with a plugging second over 7f at Scone. Likely to go back today and be ridden for luck. PROCLIVITY (11) comes here deep into the campaign and stays in the mix despite drawing out. Stalked the speed with a game second over 7f at Orange in C1 class. Keep safe with Braith Nock taking the reins.
