Verdict

Former NSW galloper CIFONELLI (6) hit the frame here when having his first outing for the new stable and is sure to have come on with that run now under the belt. Will find this easier than what he faced down south and looks the one they all have to run down. SWATOW (4) is yet to miss a quinella spot in three spins around this circuit and strips fitter second-up from the break. Expected to run well. KIRIKAN (12) doesn't win out of turn but is usually around the money and gets Wiggins on top. Can earn another cheque. KHUMBILA (7) is ready to peak now third run back and shouldn't be discounted lightly. NOLAN (2) best of the rest.
