Verdict

Very tough for the Banjo Paterson final. THE WESTERN FRONT (2) keeps racing well albeit was beaten fair and square by the in-form VEGAS JACK (4) here last time out. The Western Front was coming back from 2m there and should set up well here. Vegas Jack is relatively lightly raced and will just need a good ride early to slot in from a tricky start point here. BOLD SOUL (1) finished third there in a better run when out to his preferred trip. He ran second in this last year and looks to be on track again. KHOR (6) brings different form but the fourth in the Warrnambool Cup two back says he's good enough and he won well last time. SAMUEL LANGHORNE (11) can be flashing late as can VIRTUOUS CIRCLE (3) who was awful here last time but is absolutely good enough on his day.
