Verdict

CRYOSEISMS (7) has hit a purple patch of form this campaign only missing a drum once in six outings. Racing high on confidence of late and should be right there at the business end. NOLAN (2) has placed four of five over this track and trip and gets a bunch of weight off with the 7lbs claim. Right in contention on best figures. NORTHERNONTAP (12) saves his best form for this course and distance and will be cherry-ripe fit for this assignment. Top-three candidate. THEE CREEK (10) put in an improved performance placing at Rockhampton last time and rider Silvera Olivera sticks. In the mix. THE KAMIKAZE (4) best of the rest in an open affair.
