Verdict

YORIKIRI (4) back in trip and warmed up late with a plugging fifth over 7 ½f at Port Macquarie. Placed twice at this trip and not without solid each way claims on his preferred surface. PRINCE IS GAME (8) has a good record here and this looks a more suitable race after failing to make an impression when eighth over 1 ¼m at Wyong. Can race much closer today and play a leading role. NATURE BOY (7) returned to form with a convincing on-pace victory over 1 ³/16m at Ballina in the heavy going. Well drawn and can give a ton of cheek again. ARRAIGE (12) savaged the line last start with a tough third over 1 5/16m at Goulburn. Placed in the going and backs-up quickly.
