Verdict

MAKWELL SMART (3) ran a strong race last time out over 6f at Belmont beaten 2.25 lengths after leading them up. Has a handy 7lbs claim and third-up finds the right race. PRECAST (9) went back early from her wide draw over 6f at Geraldton last time but hit the line strongly to finish fourth. Keeps Faithfull and is sure to be winding up late. MAGIC BELLE (1) is better than the form line suggests. Has been racing in town in much tougher and the low gate and 7lbs claim brings her right into it. QUICK AS SILVER (5) brings a 2.2L defeat from Bunbury over this distance. Has been freshened and will likely push forward. Well in the mix.
