Verdict

MAGANISTA (6) has been plying her trade in harder south QLD contests and will appreciate the drop back in company here. Rock-hard fit for this and rates the leading contender against this line-up. CARLANDO (2) showed ability saluting at Cairns on debut before just running into one better here last time out. In the mix over the longer journey. DEE THREE (4) has finished runner-up in both starts to date and gets the services of Wiggins in the saddle. Has to be included in calculations. BOOMIOUS (7) has gotten better with each run this campaign and rates a genuine top-three candidate on best figures. ROCKY PRINCE (3) is a last-start winner who shouldn't be slept on.
