Verdict

ALIBABA (3) debuted in the Merson Cooper over this route and just got into an awkward spot when running on late into third. He'll be better for that with a gap between runs and can progress with experience on his side. EUROCANTO (1) resumes having won the Maribyrnong Trial at Flemington on debut, finishing too well and being put on ice since then. He should continue to improve and can measure up. INVICTO (8) is a colt by I Am Invincible on debut for the Ciaron Maher yard. He looked good showing speed to win a recent Cranbourne trial and it wouldn't shock if he leaped the raced form. HIGH ALERT (7) is a Street Boss colt on debut for the Freedman yard. He's been trialling well up in Sydney and the stable have to be respected. MILSONS POINT (2) was a smart winner on debut at Pakenham and can figure.
