Verdict

OUR JUSTIFY (9) can break through here. She's been about the mark in all three runs this time in, beaten half a length at Caulfield two back behind Afterberna & Custom which is outstanding form. She got home strongly as favourite at Seymour and now to 7f looks ideal. The one to beat. GRAN PARADISO (5) is a progressive sort who won his maiden nicely fresh, good in town last time over this trip. He likely gets a fair way back but should take holding out. PUGLIA (7) resumed a tidy winner at Ballarat Synthetic when coming from back in a small field. She can land closer here from the inside gate and go on with it. DUBAI DANCER (2) got the job done in easier company at Casterton but will give a big sight up on speed again while JENNI INTIBA (12) should be ready to fire third up.
