Verdict

ALL THE WAY NORTH (6) is the one to beat after winning first-up at this track by three and a half lengths, with the 4lbs drop from that run and the same winning rider back adding to the appeal. NIMBUS STAR (1) is the most reliable danger, having finished second and third at this venue at his past two starts and boasting a perfect top-three record from three tries at this track and distance. DEFEATER (2) was beaten only a head last start and his previous Class 2 effort reads well for this, though he has placed without winning from five attempts at this track and distance. YE MAN (8) has been costly as favourite at his past two runs, but the 5 ½f record is solid and his recent placings keep him in the mix as a genuine winning chance.

6	Second-up after a dominant first-up win at this track, beating Jungle King by three and a half lengths in Class 4 while carrying 130lbs. She now gets 4lbs relief, keeps the winning rider, and had already shown she could sustain pressure when runner-up at Gundagai over the Australian autumn. Barrier 11 is a small hurdle, but her fresh win gives her the strongest winning case. 1st Pick 6 All The Way North Jockey: C C Wong Trainer: C C Ooi J: C C Wong T: C C Ooi	152	-	-	-	34%

1	Went within half a length of Trident Rising at this track last start after being near the top of an open market, and that followed a long-neck third as favourite behind Pacific Wave. His record at this track and distance is excellent, with one win and two places from three attempts, while the 5 ½f form is deep across his career. The top weight is the main reservation, but his consistency makes him a serious winning hope. 2nd Pick 1 Nimbus Star Jockey: Y Aify Trainer: R Lim J: Y Aify T: R Lim	122	-	-	-	17%

2	Produced a strong third-up platform with a head second to Gold Medal Rose at this track, again sitting close to the top of betting. He had also been sound in Class 2 company the run prior when fifth, beaten just over two lengths. The only niggle is that he has placed four times from five at this track and distance without winning, but his recent form is good enough to put him right in the contest. 3rd Pick 2 Defeater Jockey: Randy Tan Trainer: Tiang Kim Choi J: Randy Tan T: Tiang Kim Choi	106	-	-	-	17%
